(Of course appart from > Real-Time :-) To add to this, you should have additional skills OTHER then just admin. As a linux shop, I can tell you that admins are just a cash-sink (no flames please). Even the best admins do not make hard dollars for most companies. What do I mean by this? A programmer or consultant makes hard dollars. Stuff you bill clients. Admins, support staff make soft dollars. They do things that are necessary to keep the clients happy, but it's really hard to put a dollar value on it. -- Bob Tanner <tanner at real-time.com> | Phone : (612)943-8700 http://www.mn-linux.org | Fax : (612)943-8500 Key fingerprint = 6C E9 51 4F D5 3E 4C 66 62 A9 10 E5 35 85 39 D9
