Hi,
Sun has sent us (frontstreetnetworks.com / raqware.com) notice
requesting that we can no longer provide our OSRCD service.
They claim we are selling their software at a profit!
I maintain (and my lawyer concurs) that the software we put on an OSRCD is
freely available on the Internet. Anyone can download the software and build
his/her OSRCD.
We are not selling the software we are selling a service!
The service we provide is;
1) We download latest Sun/Cobalt iso for a product.
2) We download all the latest patches.
3) We modify the partition table on, Qube1/2, RaQ1/2/3/4 to make larger
'/' and '/var' partitions. (later systems have larger partitions)
4) We download the third party patches that a client request.
5) We build an OSRCD iso that includes all the current sun/cobalt patches,
and the third party pkgs the client requested!
6) We test the OSRCD on an actual server to insure that it works properly!
(I might add, we have never had an issue with the CD's)
7) We send the OSRCD to the client.
And we do NOT sell them on ebay!
We do all this for $50.00 + shipping, we might be breaking even on the
service!
What do you think?
Does Sun/cobalt have a complaint?
