We found that RMM's power control sometimes doesn't work (usually when you need it!). Also it's very tricky indeed to use down an ssh tunnel. OTOH if you need the remote device functionality there's not really any alternative. Can't comment to the rest of your list, except that ZFS is definitely the way to go. -- Bob Bishop rb_at_gid.co.ukReceived on Sat Jan 24 2009 - 16:40:05 UTC
