I have been running Linux since Slackware 1.0 and moved to Redhat around 2.0. I started after running a BBS using a doorway for newsgroups. Been hooked ever since.

Hi, I've recently setup a new server for our public libraries. For the last two years, this has been my first "big" job, since it involves networking eleven small to medium size public libraries.
