In light of the banner that comes up when you ftp to sup.netbsd.org,
it seems that it should be able to handle quite a few connections:
230- NetBSD/i386-1.1 83MHz P24T/40M RAM/12G disks/2G tape/DEC21040/Mach64
...
230- Connected to the Internet via a 45Mbps T3 courtesy of:
230- BEST Internet Communications, Inc (info@best.com)
Huh! A T3 is a lot of courtesy. I wish I knew someone that nice. ;-)
(What exactly is a P24T, anyway?)
Of course, I don't know what else that machine and T3 are used for.
We are guests, after all. There's probably real work going on there
or something... :)
