Hey,
I have an older unit sitting around that I need to use to setup a chat server for my company. I would need this box to be able to hold around 5k-10k connections at the same time with gateway support using either spectrum or kraken to connect to outside network chat on facebook, yahoo, aim, so on.. What i dont know is if it would be possible with the current specs availible to me. and if so how would you go about getting this done. I dont need any video or file sharing but i would also like to possibly use fastpath for live help.. I would also like to use jappix mini as the client on my website and any help with it would be great as well.. Also only about a 3rd of my users would be able to use the gateways as its not offered to everyone, only paying clients..
Specs availible to me at the moment:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Extreme quad-core QX9770 Yorkfield 3.2GHz LGA775 136w
Ram: 8GB DDR3 - 2000 (PC16000)
HDD: 2x ADATA XPG SX900 ASX900S3-256GM-C 256GB SATA III MLC (SSD) 550MB/s-Read 530MB/s Write
HDD: 2x Western Digital RE WD3000FYYZ 3TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s
RCC: HighPoint Rocket 640L PCI-Express 2.0 x4 SATA III (6.0Gb/s) RAID Controller Card
MB: EVGA 132-YW-E180-A1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 790i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
INS: Average 33.76Mbps Down and 4.87Mbps Up
OS: Ubuntu 12.10 or Ubuntu Server 12.10 x64 or x86
Any help would be awesome, and i'd be very thankful..
