hw question: how many zones can i host on my pc?

hello everybody!

Assuming I have 5 client computers on my 100 mbit LAN, how many zones can I host on my home server?
The server is actually a dual P3 500 on a Tyan Tiger 133 board with 768 mb sdram (cas2).

many thanks

More then you will ever need (You won't need more then 6 if 5 people are connecting)

Don't be so overconfident of how many zones your server can hold while sleeping, eventually there are spikes that could cause a freeze in everyones gameplay, I intend to keep my zone servers under 20 and I have a Athlon XP 1700+ with 1 gig of PC2100 ECC RAM :P
