My employer dropped me a comment that we should find a business we could
recommend our customers too for support of our Linux-based Virtual
Private Servers. (We don't have enough resources to do this properly,
ourselves).
We are however, keen for our customers to use Linux and as such, I am
interested in hearing both recommendations and expressions of interest
from those on this list (or anyone else) whom you think could fit this
role. :-)
Here is a brief overview of the sort of skills required (this is not the
job description) :
Our VPS' support Ubuntu, Debian, Centos and Suse distros and we have all
in use at present. Post-install package management knowledge is very
important.
Also useful would be skills in web-hosting configuration
(Ruby/Php/MySQL,Apache, etc) as that is what most of our customers are
using these VPS' for.
Web-design is not part of the scope but if the business has these skills
as well, then they might be able to obtain more work. :-)
They will need well-honed patience and communication skills as many of
our customers are not computer-savvy.
Please direct your recommendations and/or any other comments to me, offlist.
Cheers,
Brett.
