RE: [cobalt-users] ARKEIA

Bruce,

They give away the client and sell the server.  Well, sort of...

There is no RAQ2 server version of ARKEIA, so you need to purchase and run
the server from a ARKEIA-supported platform (there are several).  The
"shareware" server version of ARKEIA will work from most common Linux boxes
(not MIPS), but support a limited number of clients and cannot be automated
(i.e. backups must be run manually from the server).

Oh, and when I called them to ask about this, I discovered that their
licenses are sold in minimum multiples of 5 (i.e. not individually).  It was
going to cost over $1,000 to run scheduled backups of my Qube2 to a remote
server running ARKEIA.

I thought they were kidding.  They're not.  Oh well...

Doug
