[NCLUG] Anyone looking for UNIX talent?

[C. J. Keist]

Hello,
     I hope some of you don't take this an advertising plug, I just want to 
help my current UNIX Admin assistant, Louie Canaiy, in finding a new job in 
anyway that I can.  We unfortunately do not have the budget to keep him on 
beyond October.  The best way for me to describe his abilities is with my 
letter of recommendation I wrote for him:

Louie has worked under my supervision as a UNIX Admin assistant from August 
28, 2000, to the present.  His responsibilities include all aspects of 
maintaining and configuring services on our UNIX servers, network 
management, support for faculty and staff, user account management, and 
management of user disk and print quotas.   During the course of his 
employment, Louie has proved himself to be an exceptional employee, a hard 
worker, and extremely self-motivated.

Since Louie starting working as a Student Lab Tech in April of 2000, I have 
been very impressed with his willingness to learn new technical 
skills.  When it became clear that the newly hired UNIX Admin Assistant for 
me would not arrive for sometime, I had no hesitation to offer Louie the 
position until the permanent person arrives.  Since then, Louie has done a 
tremendous job in helping alleviate a lot of the work load for me.  One of 
the first things he took over was my door lock security system for access 
to the computer labs.    Not only did he maintain the door lock user 
database, but also installed new card readers for the computer labs in the 
newly renovated Engineering building.  He also pulled the data wires from 
the card readers to the door lock servers.  Recently, Louie has set up a 
new print quota system that will keep track of users print quotas whether 
they print from a PC or UNIX workstation.  He also set up and configured a 
separate VLAN network for all our network printers.  This way, users would 
not be able to by pass the print server and try to print to the network 
printers directly.

Overall, Louie is a very conscientious and able employee.  He has a through 
knowledge of UNIX as well as a strong understanding of Windows NT and 
Windows 2000.  I certainly believe he has what it takes to become a valued 
member in any company or organization, and I am sad to see him leave.  I 
strongly recommend Louie for any UNIX administrative position.


If anyone of you are looking or know of companies needing UNIX expertise, 
please let me know.

Thanks...
