With that amount of users on I would carry on with the windows server
for vpn as that load is nothing. I had a dell 800mhz desktop running
win2k adv server servicing 80+ concurrent users with no problems - thats
all it did though.
I'm not familiar with easyvpn or the 871 but guessing it's vpn is based
on ipsec rather than pptp (which you are most likely using with win2k)
so the only real benefit would be better encryption.
