I administer a 3.12 LAN with one file server, fax server and communication
server.  There are about 70 users.  All applications and such run from the
server.  We have recently developed a database program for our 250+ sites
across the country and will need to dial in to download /upload info.  We
also have several small databases we use in-house for various info.  Our
latest purchase is a database program for our resource development dept. 
This program is extremely large.  I know that I do not want the current
server to have the burden of handling all of these database programs. 
Using a SQL server is not an option.  I also need to segment the LAN.

I'm thinking I am faced with adding additional RAM, hard drives and a
second NIC card in the existing server or setup a second file server.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions and ideas.
