Hi Ben,

It looks our Greenhome.com budget constraints mean that I have to do the 
new system install myself, but I could probably afford some help with 
roadblocks as I encounter them.
First one: I need to rdist securely between two  web hosts using ssh as 
the transport.  Are you available to field questions like that and what 
would you charge?

Thanks,

Marc
