Closer to 4 hours probably, depending on how you do it, and your level
of expertise. There is even an ISO available that loads the whole thing.
That way is trivial, but there's a nominal fee associated with the
latest ISO.

I'd be glad to help anyone build a QMT at an installfest. I won't be
able to make the IF this month though.

Yes. All admin functions are not GUI (yet), although managing accounts
is all web based.
