Full Biography

I'm a Solaris and HP-UX systems engineer, based in Manchester, UK.

Certified HP-UX Systems Adminstrator Feb. '04
Working on my Solaris SCSA - When I get time from actually working ;-)    Passed part I in Feb '07

I don't always know stuff, but I seem to have a knack for finding & fixing problems. Thanks to EE and the Internet, I can help with problems on AIX & SCO Unix too.

I love troubleshooting challenges. I believe computers exist to help us, so I like automating my job until I'm redundant. I hate intermittent problems, especially when they involve modems.

Favourite commands: kill, rm -rf *
Least favourite command: useradd

My public email address is <my_EE_ID> {at} sky {dot} com
I change the address when it starts getting too much spam, so check back here.  Please don't send me questions that could be answered on EE - Generally you'd get a faster response and more input by posting it on the site.
