RE: [cobalt-users] [RAQ2] Remote Backup Solution

[Jeff Lasman <jblists@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are are already companies offering backup services.  What dennis 
looking for, and what I'd like to provide, is a company that will rent (or 
give) him space on their servers for automated backups.  He (and I) would 
like it to work automatically and transparently through the interface 
already available on Cobalt RaQ boxes.

At least that's my take on it.  If I'm wrong, I'm sure Dennis will let us know.

The need is a real one, and one I've already thought of as a fillable 
niche.  I'm not kidding when I say I'm working on it.

I'll have a website up soon with a list of all the wholesale solutions we 
have available for ISPs, hosting companies and others, but right now I'm 
just busy closing out my relationship with the ISP I just sold out of, and 
creating the infrastructure for the new one, my third since 1994.

Thanks for your interest (if you've got any <smile>).

Jeff
