I'm assuming that, by domain, you mean a virtual web site Uwe?

I would think that the main limitation is with the GUI. You can 
theoretically host as much stuff as you want on any box but I think 
with that many sites, the GUI would start to give you a lot of 
trouble. The Raq uses a fairly complex system for site set-up because 
it does the emailing and "user personal site" set-up work whenever 
you set up a new web site. I really don't think it would be wise to 
just go way over that limit in terms of numbers of sites.

To tell the truth, I'm amazed that anybody would be going over a 
hundred web sites on this machine if they're using the GUI for any 
real management work.

There may also be some issues with log rotation and other operations 
but I'm not good enough to know those.
