The Raq 3 and 4 should be similar, but the XTR's, Cube 3, and 550 are
based on a different architecture. However I do not think the new
architecture should really affect the apache install to much. Other than
it's dependency on PHP instead of perl/cgi.

This may apply to my situation as well. However they are doing somewhat
of what I hope I would not have to do, recompile everything. With the
exception of PHP.

However it may be a good thing, as I may have to recompile/install
openssl to get the missing parts I need.

So it looks like something I will look further into before diving in. I
really am not a fan of os restores, and dread ever getting to that
point. Unless I am going to sell the XTR. :) Then a OS restore is a
must.

Thanks again.
