I've a critical app running on some RELENG_6 boxen, and because I'm almost always either off-grid and power limited, or simply down-link of a VSAT, with the latency/bandwidth limitations that imposes, I need to run RELENG_6, to mirror my distant (back in Maine) apps running on my 1U set. The IBM t41 (Randy)? Dell laptoppen? Cluebat to forehead please, I'll summarize, etc., and thanks in advance, Eric
