Thank you Keith!

Those documents are very helpful.

Our sysadmin had found the white paper on ODM yesterday and already plans to use it. He says that if you're ever in Alaska, feel free to stop by - we'll even put you up for a night (might be a cabin with no H2O or power, though :-)

Thanks again.
