Either it's multiple worker nodes concurrently writing to the same workstation -- in which case he needs "a server" on the workstation to accept incoming connections and all that overhead, with enough oomph to handle concurrency he expects. Or it's a beefed-up central server where everybody writes to, and every workstation can poll it and maintain its own state databases from there (i.e. worker nodes don't talk back to submit nodes). -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu
