It is good to have someone who can do all these things. Program, understand networks, understands systems and all appear on his CV. I would love to meet such. Though like you point out, it is always a plus to master one thing. As the famous quote, now often misquoted, goes, 'A jack of all trades and master of one". I would focus on that one thing they lean on and spend more time on and take the rest of their knowledge as a plus, in case I need someone who can sort out my network. -- Mike Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that one in a million chances happen 99% of the time. ------------------------------------------------------------
