LMFAO!!!!!!!!!! On a side note, just because I am interested in knowing a little about people before I start trying things people suggest, what is "your" background, ie MSCE, MCP, MBA, MD, no college/never graduated with a degree? The reason I ask is I went to college for 1 1/2 years, ran out of $$$$$$$ and left college, decided I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life, so I started working with computers and just kept with it. I have no certifications, all my knowledge is based on real world situations and reading through groups like this and "playing" on test machines. I have been able to mess with a lot of different technology such as: wireless networking, SAN's, ip based phones, POTS/PBX lines, AS400's, SCO, Linux, DOS, 9x, NT/2k and much more. That being said, is there any real reason to have something on paper saying I am a MCSE, MCP, CCNA, GOB (Good ol' Boy), etc? If you were hiring someone, how much weight does paper have in regards to real world of IT/IS? I am content with my current position as sys admin, but just curious as my parents are still asking me if I plan to go back to college at some point, I am a youngin, 25. I don't think, at this point in time, there is ANY reason to get a degree, but think that maybe some extra letters on my name might get me more money/better title/more respect. Hope I don't get flamed for stealing the thread, but I thought this kinda fit in with the OT bone head questions. Thoughts or comments please?

In true Don Ely style I flamed back, But in the end gave up the tag line. keeping some of the letters. Over time others have given me new letters with meaning and here they are.

What the hell does that acronym mean??!?!? I checked Google and the only results I saw involved Kevin!!

This includes network equipment as well as servers. If you have to reboot things on a monthly basis for "network stability", there is an underlying problem that should be addressed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -K.Borndale IT Manager Sybari Software 631.630.8569 -direct dial 631.439.0689 -fax http://www.sybari.com "One man's ceiling is another man's floor" |---------+----------------------------> | | "Joe Irvine" | | | <jirvine@tbopayro| | | ll.com> | | | | | | 04/01/2002 11:53 | | | AM | | | Please respond to| | | "MS-Exchange | | | Admin Issues" | | | | |---------+----------------------------> >----------------------------------------------------------------------- >---- -----------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: "MS-Exchange Admin Issues" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | cc: | | Subject: RE: Exchange server reboot simple q | >----------------------------------------------------------------------- >---- -----------------------------------------------------------------------| I cold-boot my entire network once a month.. it works wonders for network stability.

Or do you? Our exchange server has been up for 7 months straight now w/o a reboot. I am wondering if it would be a good idea to reboot it every now and then-- free up any memory leakages, etc.. Is it necessary, or can I let it just keep chugging away until it is necessary? Any input, thoughts, etc. would be great. Thanks. paul green seattle --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
