These guys are engineers and very self sufficient. Mostly they pay me to be "available" for questions, I show them once how to do things, and they learn. Very unCB-like. When I go onsite for anything extra they pay me. My other gig is a bottle of scotch per visit. That is OK too. Only four users there.

They are somewhat smaller (under ten users), but I charge a montly retainer of $100 and then whatever time I need to actually go to visit (most I do from home) I charge a per hour fee. Just finished a 2003SBS to SBS2011 migration yesterday. On Thu, Aug 4, 2011 at 2:55 PM, Joseph L.

Exchange 2010 3. 6 total windows servers from file to sql etc 4. 6 Redhat machines in various roles 5. a few procurves 6. A bsd vpn/firewall 7. Some other misc network equipment like printers/card scanners etc… I know it depends on the specifics but I need just what range some folks might expect that to be in. I am stepping out of that duty and the owner (lots of history here) is asking me for some info.
