8/28    I'd like to learn (more)about sys admin.  For all you sys admins out
        there:  What's some of the best ways to learn a lot in a short amount
        of time (6 months)?
        \_ By doing.  Set up multiple boxes with the OS you're most interested
           in and network them in various ways.  That's a good start.
        \_ There are some good pages on the web for specific questions to
           common tricky technical problems--I recall there were a few pretty
           good links from <DEAD>www.geek-girl.org<DEAD> (outdated?)  -John
           \_ Where is the power switch on my computer?
        \_ go to Berkeley, get sucky grades, join CSUA. CSUA is a sys admin
           farm. Every year, 8/10 CS drop-outs from Berkeley become sys admin
           and make lots of money.

        \_ Like to learn more about sys admin, eh?  Which one?  AlanC?  He's
           pretty sexy...
                \_ I'm sexier.
                \_ Unfortunately for you, alanc is already married and now
                   works as a developer, not a sysadmin.
