I'm not sure if the assumptions are sound. The S3 is extremely cheap. For example, my personal use of it comes to less than a dollar a month. > 0.

Two things you might want to keep in mind: - The tabled's implementation is not the canon, S3 is. If the S3fox fails with tabled but works with S3, it's likely a bug in tabled. I fixed up quite a bunch of them when I started running Boto. For example, parsing of arbitrary ACPs is absent and only canned forms are supported for now. - You're likely to run into bugs with stability, or something not starting... I just barely have it all working. Don't trust tabled with your backups just yet (I don't). Maybe in a few months. > If yes to both, can you outline the steps that you would setup > the three components for such a purpose? I hope that tabled's setup.txt should be sufficient. CLD does not really need any setup, just an empty directory. Ask away if you have a specific question, no matter how detailed. -- Pete -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe hail-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
