    Greetings,
    
    Has anybody ever setup a central nessus server to be
    used with multiple, simultaneous clients?  Any idea
    what the safe max per server is in terms of # clients
    and # scanning threads (ie: target IPs/hosts)?  I'm
    interested in setting up a central server with the
    ability to scan 50-100 confirmed hosts simultaneous
    from 5-10 unique clients and am wondering if 1 server
    can handle this, or if I'll need to setup multiple
    servers.
    
    Thanks much!
