Subject: [9fans]  file server?

Since the how-to's are being discussed recently, I thought it would be a =
good time to ask:

Once, it used to be the "standard" configuration to have one machine as =
a CPU/auth server, one machine as a file server, and one machine as a =
"terminal", for a total of three systems, if one had the available =
hardware.

What's the "recommended" setup now?  Are most people using a combined =
cpu/auth/file server running Fossil+Venti, or is the recommendation to =
use a seperate fossil+venti server dedicated to file serving, and =
another to serve as CPU/auth?

I currently have a cpu/auth server in a vm that I drawterm to and store =
most of my Plan 9 stuff on, but since I have an opportunity to move some =
things around, am wondering if this is the best setup.

Thanks to all in advance!
