The RaQ 3 and RaQ 4 have a pre-set limit of 250 virtual sites.  This 
number was chosen carefully based on the hardware resources of the 
server, 'typical' services used, GUI usability, etc.

If you really want to increase this limit, simply edit
 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Cobalt/Product_raq.pm

and change the line:

$Sites_Max            = 250;  # how many sites can the system have?

to something else.  Note that adding more sites, especially ones with 
dynamic content (database access, ASP/PHP scripting, etc) can 
severely impact server performance.  If you have lots of small sites 
with static HTML, more than 250 sites shouldn't be an issue.
