6 Hello all,
7
8 A few months back I moved jobs. At my last job (as you all well know from this
9 blog), I was a server administrator and .Net programmer on the side. At the new
10 job, I was hired primarily as a web developer (PHP, JavaScript, Joomla dev,
11 etc.). Naturally, because of the position change, I was no longer doing server
12 administration and consequentially had nothing new to post on this blog.
13
14 That has changed now. The company I now work for didn't have much of a server
15 infrastructure (a non-server edition mac that stored files), so they asked me
16 to design and build a new one.
17
18 All that being said, I now have new content to post here. You Linux users will
19 be happy to hear that I am now using Linux for some of our servers (virtual
20 host and file server). To you Windows users, I will be building an Exchange
21 server, terminal server, and a backup server (this might be done on Linux
22 though). Most likely things in that list will be shifted around a bit in the
23 next two or so weeks so please bare with me.
24
25 Some of the technologies I will be using in the upcoming posts will be
26
27 * Windows Small Business Server 2008 (x64)
28 * Ubuntu Server 9.10
29 * VMWare Server 2
30 * Microsoft Outlook Exchange
31 * TightVNC
32 * SSH
33
34 On one final note, I would like to put out a shameless plug for my other blog,
35 http://timexwebdev.blogspot.com[Musings of a Web Developer]. It covers the
36 issues and fixes I have found throughout my adventures of coding websites.
37 Essentially, it's the same thing as this blog but for web development rather
38 than server administration.
39
40 I look forward to the upcoming comments about how depressing IT work can be
41 *AHEM*... I, uh, I mean the joys of IT work. Who's kidding though. Everyone
42 knows that we IT people love our jobs, especially the Dilbert comics that
43 document our endeavors.

45 :P
