I have to be honest, I usually only have time to thumb through the 
three magazines that I am subscribed to - login, Linux Journal, and 
Sysadmin Mag.  If something does not catch my eye immediately, it does 
not get read.

The life of an admin in charge of 270 user accounts, ~20 Solaris 
servers, ~15 Linux servers, ~100 node beowulf, ~50 windows machines, 3 
firewalls, 5 VPNs, 7 layer 2/3 switches with multiple VLANs, 3 OS X 
machines, and ~15 laptops with various OSes all BY MYSELF!!!  Which I 
guess is why I have been working too many 60 hour weeks on top of going 
to school.  :-)  Sounds like I should add a partridge in a pear tree or 
something to that....  LOL  At least I got to go fishing this past 
weekend!

I will have to go back and look for this.  Thanks for the pointer....
