This sounds like me prior to my current position, Senior Consultant.  I had
been working at ISP's for 3 years.  Had never worked on a LAN only on WAN's,
had never seen a 6500, heck had never really seen any of the equipment I had
been working on remotely for 3 years.  The job I had just come from was a
"nocling".  To some it is the lowest of lows.  To me, I saw it as a very
good learning opportunity.

The Senior Consultants job was offered to me.  I gasped!!! Several times. 
Asked a few friends should I do this or not.  They said I would be foolish
not to.

There advice to me is the same most here have given to you here.  They would
not have offered you the position if they did not feel you could fill the
shoes.  They feel you would fit in with the team, grow with the company, and
learn from your experiences, past and present. Just remember that not
everyone knows everything.  Each person has their own strengths and
weaknesses and everyone learns from everyone else.

Take Pete's advice, look calm on the outside and spin your wheels on the
inside.  Each of us has probably done the same. (late nites reading and
researching the answers)

Have a stiff drink, smile and accept the offer.  Good luck!!
