[cobalt-users] Farwell to the Cobalt Community



Howdy folks;

I know you did not hear from me very often, but I got untold amounts of
valuable information from your letters and I am very grateful. With
cobalts no longer getting support, and our client base outgrowing the
RaQ3 we have been using for the last 3 years or so we decided it was
time for a change.

I am sending this last message to say thanks and Farwell to the Cobalt
community. For those who are curious, we are moving to a new server
called Easy Admin from www.datapipe.com . It has a browser based
interface designed by them that is far superior to the Cobalt interfaces
with far more capabilities and features. Best of all they have a
migration script that will migrate your cobalt RaQ3 or RaQ4 to the easy
admin boxes. The Easy Admin servers are available on two platforms, Red
Hat 9 and FreeBSD 4.8. We decided on Free BSD because Red Hat 9 will no
longer be supported past April 2004, and I have been told by their tech
support that FreeBSD is far more stable than any Red Hat based platform
and much faster and of course it is true Unix, not Linux.

Don't miss-understand me, I am not a salesman for their systems, I just
thought you might be interested in one of the solutions available out
there which allow for a fairly painless transition from RaQ3 or RaQ4 to
another platform.

Well, so-long folks and thanks for all the help, cheers.
