Full Biography

Steve Knight, I work as independent IT Consultant in the UK.

Expert in all flavours of Windows from early days of NT, Win2000, 2003, 2008, 2012, 2016, 2019 etc. including clustering, networking, MS Exchange, SQL server, HCL / IBM / Lotus Notes / Domino admin & design from V3 upto current R11. Previously Netware 3.11 upto NW6. Will try my hand at anything, IT or otherwise!

I have started recording some of the many batch file, VBScript, LotusScript and other techniques I have answered in questions here at the following site:
http://scripts.dragon-it.co.uk/ though please ask a question here and can add to the basic scripts for your requirements etc.

If you need someone there, I am always looking for paid short-term contract/consultancy work anywhere or longer term roles in the UK Midlands, rates very reasonable!
