Dee,

Right, it has been a long time!

The RAID boxes that come with the E450 each require an IP address.  I
believe this necessary for Sun maintenance.

Yes, it should have both 100 Mb and 1 Gb Ethernet capability.

This conference call should include you, me, Steve Ackerman, Tom
Achtor, Ben Domenico, Dave Fulker, Mike Schmidt (our sysadmin), and
perhaps one sysadmin type from SSEC.

OK.  Please CC all correspondence to Mike Schmidt:

Talk to you soon.
