GNHLUG & NNEUUG folks, I was recently contacted by folks at a training center in Maine with whom I used to work... as mentioned below, they've got an opportunity to teach a UNIX class and are looking for an instructor. If any of you could do this and are interested in pursuing the business, please contact Julie Sheets at the contact info below.

Attached is a text file with the outline for the UNIX course. At the present time I do not know which flavor of UNIX the client is running. I would appreciate it if you could forward this message along to folks who may be interested and available for a 4 day course here in Portland, ME, for a client. They can respond to me at the contacts below. <<Unix Fundamentals.txt>> Thanks again and great to hear things are going well. Julie A. Sheets Performance Knowledge 207.772-2335 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
