The Raq550 is really not a bad server - just newer.  Last year, it was released and in my opinion
there was not enough testing.  Now, there are enough patches and third party packages so that it is
usable.  I have Raq4's also and I prefer the Raq4s because there were ways to get around problems
easier.  The Raq550's are faster.

Overall, the Raq550 has less GUI interface problems than the Raq4.  Meta-verify was used to fix the
Raq4 problems.  The Raq550 does not really have a meta-verify type program but there has not really
been a need for it either.

Majordomo is less customizable and there is really no help for it that I could find.

The directory structure for the Virtual domains is not as easy to work with as the Raq4.  My clients
do not like the way the directory structure when they FTP.  They see the "error" and the "stats"
directories in their web.  It is a different paradigm but once you get used to it, it is workable.

I think that the GUI interface could have been better.  So many different screens that could have
been combined into one.  For Example, the list of domains only hold 25 per page and they are not
really in alpha order.  I have to scan through 5 or 6 screens just to find the domain name.  There
is a search feature to find the domain name but I would have liked it be able to adjust the amount
to list per page.

For more information, search for Cobalt Crash Test Dummy for other problems.

Any other questions?
