That's a different question. In that case my answer is it really depends on the application, and the usage patterns. It really doesn't matter whether the users are remote or not. A 520 might be able to do it for you, maybe not.

We were planning on putting the users on the corporate network. We
need to do this for other reasons than accessing the iseries. I just
need to know a range of configurations that will support 2000 green
screen users.

I suspect this has not been answered because it is so simple. Just put the iSeries on the corporate network. As long as your remote users have access to the network they can get top the iSeries using iSeries Access. This is a network issue, not an iSeries configuration issue. In the case that the remote users are individuals with laptops, set up VPN access to your network. I would use a hardware solution like one from Cisco, or if the remote is a branch office, just use a couple routers to connect the branch office to your main network.

Subject: iSeries configuration

I have a client who has requested a suggestion for an iseries
configuration that will support about 2000 remote users running a
green screen application. At this point I am just trying to get an
idea of some approximate costs to see if this will be a reasonable
solution. The users might be on one lpar or they may be split between
3 lpars, depending on the cost difference.

Does anyone have any reccomendations?

Thanks,

Albert
