RE: [cobalt-developers] sub domains

["Steve Jacobs" <steve@xxxxxx>]

I have a project in mind that would benefit from the use of large numbers of
subdomains. Each would only have a frames page which would then pull in a
few asp pages from a "mother" site. I would like to know if there is a way
around this limit.

I too am curious in regards to the "250 user limit" comment if Cobalt
actually has a max limit.  If it does, then how would you cluster and load
balance multiple Cobalts?
