<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma, new york, times, serif">So, for my intro: I have recently re-located back to the Twin City area after 25 years. I primarily work in the Windows world (No flames please) and "dabble" in linux for lack of a better word. I'm primarily a SQL Server DBA and additionally do some .Net development with Oracle and MySQL and PHP and PERL thrown in for good measure. I have been in the IT industry for 28 years and have worked on numerous kinds of hardware, OSs and software. </DIV>
