at present not many. we do use the whole 10.x.x.x range as our nat-proxy 
;p net-engr decided to give people giant slices of it.. however it doesnt 
get used much. just special cases so far...

ie

when a wireless client that is not registered with the univeristy (mac 
addr not in dhcp servers records) it is tossed onto the proxy and 
presented with a page asking them to either register the device or auth 
with their univeristy account. if they opt to register, they get a real 
ip.. if they use ther univeristy account they are allowed to do whatever 
but still sit on the proxy'd side of the universe.

we also have one or two wifi (laptop) labs liveing in the proxy..

so i dont ever see too many of the people comeing from the proxy side of 
the world but it does happen... (plus who knows howmany people 
nat-firewall/proxy appliances in their homes.)

--

the fun part of terminal servers (the real servers) is diffrent customers 
can very so much on their impact to a real server.. Proffessors and Grad 
students have a much higher cpu/memory useage then undergrads. (right now 
the primary use of the realservers is for some statitics apps, so grads 
and proffessors start up big batch jobs for reasearchy stuff and walk away 
and comeback a few hours later, where undergrads just do enough to get 
their homework done)
