Mike Noyes recruited me some time ago. I failed to send the introduction email. I've had almost a two month absence from LEAF support and felt that this would be the time to send the email.

I was thrust into the network world many years ago when I went from developing on hp 3000 mini computers to Unix/Oracle development. Networking became an interest because I found network knowledge was helpful while resolving some program failures since one of Oracle's components is being a networked database. I implemented a network protocol between a touch tone phone system and a Java multi-threaded server sitting a Solaris box around 1998. Though I am not a full time system administrator or network admin, my network knowledge has really grown since I started playing with LEAF. This is especially true since I've been trying to help answer LEAF questions. Now my wife cannot understand why there is a computer stuffed into the stereo rack with a penguin on it--the samba server. In addition, she is amazed that the printer is not attached to either computer now. She calls the computers stacked up like cord wood under my desk, "my chop shop." Of course one of those is the LEAF box hooked up to the cable modem protecting the toy LAN.

Many thanks go to Mike for holding the site together. Moreover, thanks to all the developers that have contributed to LEAF over the years. It is amazing to explore all that you have been able to stuff into one 1680K diskette.
