Re: Best configuration for WebTen and FileMaker Web server

We run EIMS and WT on one machine and we're having some trouble with it. We
also run WT and Filemaker on another machine and it gives us problems too.

>From what I read and from other sources WT likes to run by itself. Same with
EIMS (being somewhat similar to SIMS) and FileMaker is a definite resource
hog.
