Cisco 48 port switches and a couple routers

this is starting to sound appealing, minus the whole commute - but if it is a do nothing, why not VPN in to do nothing

I've got a couple of older Cisco routers and switches that I can give to the
successful candidate.  That ought to help some of the problems.

Our district would be revolting if we had those kinds of logon times.

I think it would be a fun challenge. I'd be curious as to what they are willing to commit with funds, what their expectations are, and what support they are willing to provide. I can do a lot on a network with duct tape and baling wire so to speak, but have to have full support in what I'm trying to accomplish. Truth be known I'm close enough, but am tied into a contract so
I'm gonna have to pass, but could be fun to try!

Let me get this straight. The techs are all union so the tech director can't touch the equipment? That's the scariest part. Does that budget
figure include the salaries or are salaries separate.  If salaries are
separate, you can get creative and make it work. I manage on $25,000 a year or less depending on what my REAP grant is and whether Congress continues to fund it. You just have to find and use available resources that provide things for free. There is absolutely no reason that those techs shouldn't be visiting Rock Island arsenal on a regular basis to take advantage of what
the Army is rotating out of service.  There's some pretty nice two and
three-year-old equipment available. All it takes is someone to fill out the
paperwork and watch the website.

That login thing is a bit worrisome. I had 9 year old Celeron 600s with 64 MB RAM that didn't take 20 minutes to login, even when we were a Novell
Network.  Something definitely ain't correct there.

It does sound like a challenge and it would be a blast to give it a shot -
if I lived closer.

That's what I'm thinking.

Yes, failure, but from the creative standpoint, it sure would be fun

try. From the technical side (outside of the tech plan etc) it sure would be challenging to try and get that system fixed back up right. Sounds like the
infrastructure is there though.

Obviously something is seriously wrong with their setup if they have login times of 20+ minutes. That basically means those machines are useless...

You would have to go backwards before you could go forward. With that
current budget you could only spend about $7500K a building if you divided equally. With a district that big a budget like that for tech is just bad.

Talk about setting up for failure...
