Re: [cobalt-users] [WANTED] RaQ2 Consulting

["Clayton Dukes" <cdukes@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I just got my RAQ2 this week. And have it running quite well.

After working with it, I have been considering upgrading to the RAQ4.
If you are interested in buying mine, let me know.
Everything is already set up, running all the goodies (PHP4, MySQL, Webmail
[IMP], LDAP, etc.)

And, of course, if there's anything else you want added, I'd be happy to
help.

This can be easily resolved if you set up a router or a firewall to do NAT
overloading for you.
(I have a single IP address and 6 servers)
