In a matter of hours, my company has decided to make this an official project that I will be working on. I've made provisions with the man in charge to allow me to post our findings/processes to the open source community. As the project progresses, I'll keep everyone informed and will be sure to post our findings to the list here as well as the wiki. Our reference platform will be the Raq 3i. We also have a Raq 3 but it only has one NIC and no expansion. The Raq 3i has two onboard ethernet as well as a PCI slot. I'm thinking a four port Realtek will fit there nicely! -- Tim Nelson Technical Consultant Rockbochs Inc. http://www.rockbochs.com // 218-727-4332 SDamron wrote: > Try googling centos plus blue quartz.
