Is that possible to make an Internet Provider on a P5 166Mhz with 
32Mb and 4.3Gb SCSI-II HD using Linux? Can I set up 30 external lines 
(to users) that use SLIP/PPP at 28,800 ? I have a 2Mbps 
backbone to use.

I'm afraid that this machine is not fast enough to handle 30 users at 
the same time using all the ttys...
