There's been mention of having paid people responsible for the systems in shifts, and as any experienced sysadmin can tell you, you build a system, you own it. A setup with AFS+Kerberos and LDAP+SSL is not trivial to set up or maintain, I've been a Linux admin for years and I'm not sure I could take over the current setup without a huge learning curve. The people who are putting it together right now will be the best qualified, and possibly the only ones qualified, to run it. It's also been mentioned that exponential growth is intended. These things together seem to point towards current admins becoming the paid admins. -- Michael Potter [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ HCoop-Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hcoop-discuss
