In the past, others have had success using Cummerbund with Galaxy, and there's even a Cummerbund wrapper in the tool shed:

I don't know if these files are required by Cummerbund to do replicate analysis. This would be a good question for the Cummerbund developers, as well as what the p and q values mean when doing replicate analysis. If you find that Galaxy's lacking something for Cummerbund to function correctly, that would be very useful information to share with the list. Best, J.
