well John, I've been doing an internship with my local school system -(past 5 weeks)- and have since learned much much more...(ya can't beat hands on ;))....I've done some networking...ie: patch panel connectivity problems to switches and drops, configured IPs to workstations, worked with some security policies...installed Airport Cards for a wireless networking system...(which I don't really care for, too much interference...constantly losing signal frequency when you don't have enough base stations, and with the lockers in the hallways..:rolleyes:...it increases the interference..)..installed lots of software/hardware/printers....updating browsers and simple stuff like that....also some troubleshooting, my favorite!!....I love to pick my brain...yeah, that little thing...:D

...I've been slacking on the testing....trying to learn the school's system so I could be as productive as possible (they run mostly MAC.)... My classes are over....and the hunt is on!!!....in the mean time, I'm still studying ...I'm A+/MCP, but it seems that isn't enough....

...I didn't get to touch the Server :laughs: ...and I don't blame them....but I've seen my share of spagetti boards ....YIKES!!!....and tried to untangle some of the messes, to figure out what going where...:confused:

...the only thing I need now is for someone to give me the opportunity to show them that I can learn their system, and contribute to their growth and success. I've been applying for entry level positions...but without experience, it -t'ain't- easy...:D

......Wish me luck!!!......


P.S. unfortunately, I've been slacking on the "toons" ...its hard to do fun stuff...when life ain't straight.....know what I mean?..:)

but you bet your hiney....I'm fishing!!! :D

We'll need to get together over at my house, I think I can find enough spare parts that you can build a seperate "server" at home so you can learn the "server" side of things ;) . It's always easier on the ticker to crash your server instead of work's... Just so you know, when I hire a low experience / fresh outa school admin, I'm going to grab a guy that has done an internship. It does help, but you need the tests too...

Don't fret. It took me 6 months before they let me touch a server. A year later I was runnin' the joint (well the network anyway :rolleyes: )

We have since gone from 80 people and 3 servers to almost 300, 16 servers (MS is a server hog, takes 5 boxed to replace 1 perfectly functioning Netware box :af: ) in three cities with several smaller remote sites. Moral of this story? Be REAL carefull what you wish for...

....."and now a word from our sponsor"

..."Studies have shown that the "SPORT" of fishing creates a state of euphoria that equals the sensation achieved by that of an awakening bear after its long period of hibernation.".....
