[newbie] FAQ Listing / why I've not been here

2002-04-28 Thread Michael Viron

Don't worry fellow list members, I've not gone missing

I recently managed (finally) to get some time to start using towards
updating / revising my FAQ site (some of it posts to the Redhat lists, some
of it on the Mandrake lists).

For quite a while now (until recently), I've been without a Mandrake box to
actually use to assist in answering questions, since the linux box I was
handling administration for has departed.

Anyways, since my parents purchased a new dell PC, I now (finally) have my
own linux workstation / server, where I can actually take a look /
investigate problems again.

My latest project is to try to get a linux server installed at work to
handle centralized user authentication, and possibly to replace the
existing firewall.  I've probably convinced my supervisors 99%+ to do it -
just a matter now of locating hardware to run it on.

The primary reason that I've not been regularly posting to the list is
because I've been very busy since I am now working 3 jobs.  One is
full-time as an IT Manager (ending my 11 month job search), another is
part-time somewhere else for benefits (small companies tend not to have
heavy benefits packages), and of course, various consulting gigs that I'm
trying to finish from before I got hired on.

Of course, this doesn't include my after-hours work on stuff like General
Education Online (http://www.findaschool.org), the Pensacola Linux Users
Group, Academic Web Information Repository (http://www.webspinners.org),
Simple End User Linux (http://www.seul.org), and various other projects.

Anyways, in the coming days, you'll start seeing posts from me again as I
can manage.

Michael

Glad to see you back Michael.

Are you a bleeding Capricorn... looks like you are trying to work yourself
into the grave (or the Matrix?). Don't overdo it man, make sure you have a
life. Even if it is just to watch the odd moonrise or sunset. ;-)

Cheers.
Michael
