how many processors

Your box may only have 2 physical processors, but /proc/cpuinfo actually displays cores, so if you have 2-dual core processors than procinfo correctly displayed 4 processors.

Subject: how many processors

How can you tell how many processors a server has?  I always thought that you could look in /proc/cpuinfo, but we recently had a Dell tech here that said that was incorrect.  One of my servers shows 4 processors in cpuinfo, but he said the box only has 2.  So, what is the correct way to tell?
