I'm happy to do this now for anyone that wants it. I'll build and install a debian box to order and supply the onsite reboot/emergency diagnostics required. I'm not a debian developer but I have high-availability operational experience with internet services <URL:http://www.campin.net/resume.html>. I have a full-time job right now but I can still easily work in the emergency availability arrangement as discussed here. This borders on advertising I suppose, so contact me off-list if you want to work something out. I can get as much rackspace as required on short notice at a local colo with three t3 connections. <URL:http://www.inreach.com/services/colocation/serv_colo_netmap.html>. Not the most bandwidth ever, but more than enough for 99% of people. -- Nate "The holy passion of Friendship is of so sweet and steady and loyal and enduring a nature that it will last through a whole lifetime, if not asked to lend money." - Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar(1894) - Samuel Clemens -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
