  1. I've noticed a lot of sys admin jobs have been getting shipped over sees, I'd suggest getting something in a data center. They haven't found a way to have an indian replace a drive, swap cables or hardboot a server...yet. Entry level is always a good place to start though it seems they still want some sort of experience/education. Network admin usually require your CCNA, Unix admin positions will pretty much ask you what you are familiar with and in my experience, get paid a bit more than window admins, and window admins get asked for a MCSE, though you can usually just BS your way into a JR position as a win admin.

    I myself am a Recovery specialist which pretty much means I know how to use netbackup and TSM which is enterprise backup and recovery software, as well as manage the hardware that goes along with it. (my job is also outsourceable)

  2. I liked the section on the services. would have saved me some time a few months ago when I created one for my Magic Jack. Phone service for $20 a year and now with no annoying add screen.

  3. I myself usually have close to 15 putty sessions open at one time at work and was tired of looking through them to find the environment I needed to be in. I went hunting around and found a bit of free software that is a tabbed client for PuTTY that you can get at http://puttycm.free.fr.

    It also allows you to store a database of your connection so you just double click and runs a log-in script. Also allows up to 5 lines of a macro to run after you log in (su - <password>) makes life a bit easier. Also has a .dll file that you drop in the install directory that will encrypt your database.

    Didn't see it on the forums, thought I'd share my find.
