I would imagine that Redhat would be quite happy to help you set up the 
training center.  I can't imagine that infrastructure requirements would 
be particularly difficult for the basic courses, as Redhat runs happily 
on most PC hardware.  You'll almost certainly need to have a RHCE 
certified trainer to deliver the training--and the training would be 
considerably more impressive if that person was a skilled Windows 2000 
admin as well.  You could incorporate the Sun kit into a more advanced 
class...

Seeing a message from Panama has reminded me of the nice cafe in 
downtown Panama City where I had my first taste of corvina.  Fresh 
grilled corvina, cerveza, and two weeks of no college homework... :-)
