It depends more on the hardware level (ie memory and CPU) rather than per
client. People generally are a better judge of when to deploy more servers
into the existing network. Remember that if you are using Windows 2000
Active Directory that this is a distributed network system that load
balances each client across all of the servers.

What is the reccomended limit of clients per server before multiple
The reason im asking is refering to a 2000 server with 300 client machines, the server has raid 5 accross 4 HD's, is a 2.8Gz processor and a Gb of ram, but at random times when lots of users are logging off and on the server grinds to a halt
That server should be able to cope no problems - what other
applications/services do you have running on the Svr machine? For example
do you have MS Exchange?

There is no roaming profiles going on, the server is running Inoc Virus scanner, although has been tried with this uninstalled. The server is also running Ranger although thay claim this cannot be the cause
