In a completely rational society, the
best of us would aspire to be teachers and the rest of us would have
to settle for something less, because passing civilization along
from one generation to the next ought to be the highest honor and
the highest responsibility anyone could have." --Lee Iacocoa |

My background is in Systems Administration and Networking. I spent 8 years as a Unix system administrator, primarily Sun systems. I was the Systems Manager of all University servers for several years, logging many hours doing system planning and integration. I have system administration experience in Unix, Windows and Novell. I have also worked in Networking as assistant network manager. I have performed tasks in all OSI layers, from physical (running cables and terminating ethernet and fiber cables) to supporting many network server applications (i.e. DNS, DHCP, web server, SNMP clients).
