Dear;   This is  Postscript;

Gerald,  I apologize.
I remembered that  I bought the server from a Japanse contractor.
Now I find that the server is not GS14.
It is very similar to GS14.
The contractor might buy it from Front Street Networks.
But it is not GS14, any way.

I will contact the Japanse contractor for
detail specifications of the macine..
Please close this issue.
