I've recently started lurking so I figure I'd better introduce myself too. I'm somewhat new to the local tech scene and have been moving up swiftly in IT support on a path towards systems administration. Currently i work with an IT MSP (managed services provider, for those who don't know) that consults with several businesses in the region. You can check out our company at www.moveitupward.com.
Before this gig I worked closely with Ron Braithwaite who is a long time PLUG member... he might still be on the list actually (hi Ron!) and he recommended I check out the group. I've attended a few PLUG events (the Azure intro with Scott Hanselman) and joined the list to keep on top of what topics are coming up for the monthly PLUG events. My current gig is mainly microsoft oriented (as are most small businesses), but I've been getting more into the *nix world lately and have been using ubuntu personally. I'm interesting in leveling up my knowledge of Linux administration in a way that I can apply to a future gig somewhere outside of microsoft-land :-) Basically I'm just looking to soak up as much knowledge as I can from the grizzled vets, and maybe ask some questions when I get stuck on my home server lab projects :-) - Dan On Wed, Sep 14, 2016 at 9:13 PM, Louis Kowolowski <[email protected]> wrote: > Welcome! > > Let me know if you have any IPv6 questions.
