*************** reply *******************
We will be setting up all the websites we have running on the RaQ3, and
then updating our NS entries with the registrars, so that if the RaQ3
goes down, surfers will automatically be pointed towards the backup
server. I will be writing a syncronization script to keep the backup
server matching user accounts, websites, email, etc. This is my first
try at doing this, so it should be an interesting experience. Thanx for
all the replies, I appreciate it.
