so you would have to give them a backup account... if it is avoidable, i
would avoid this.

should be no problem.

works even with 1 nic, but you`ll use your providers network. be sure to
ask that it is not billed as external traffic.

i have the raq cross-connected directly to the backup server that
contains a 4-port nic. i consider it a bit more secure (but not THAT
much) as the backup traffic doesn`t pass the provider`s network.
