Sorry. If you do not like my approach, close this page, please. Experience: 06/2003 - present Z3K. UNIX System Administrator/Analyst/Perl, C Programming Performing all UNIX support and System Administration, on remote servers in Canada and the United States. A member of a support team as a UNIX System Administrator. Installation of operating systems (remote as well via VNC Console) and preparing them for further work: kernel rebuild, software installation, ensuring security, monitoring, trouble shooting. Management of the authoritative DNS servers. Clustering and load balancing solutions. VPN channels. UNIX software: "AMANDA" Automated backup software: installation, tuning and support. Strong skills. MySQL-4.0.x, MySQL-4.1.x, MySQL-5.0 ("Transactional" or "Disk DB" configuration), PostgreSQL-7.x (and porting later on to 8.x): installation, administration, developer support, database design, automated backup, disaster prevention/recovery. Developped and scheduled a plan of easy and flawless migration from MySQL-4.0.x to MySQL-4.1.x, and further on to MySQL-5.0.x. Strong skills. Did the migration from apache-1_3 to apache-2.0 and up to apache-2.2 + php-5 + JDK1.4 and JDK1.5, and Tomcat-4.1 and Tomcat-5.5 successfully installed and smoothly running on FreeBSD-6.x production servers. Strong configuration skills. "C" and "Perl" programming for UNIX. "Shell" scripting, a bit of "expect" scripting. Developed from scratch a system for monitoring and collecting traffic statistics on the "Foundry BigIron 8000" routers by means of the "NetFlow" industial standard collectors. The log file processor and database manager ("PgSQL") for this system was implemented in "C". Supporting remote hosting servers faced a little problem: customers who take a month trial hosting used web applications for sending SPAM. It was very hard to find such a customer among many other mainly respectable customers. My solution was to provide some kind of "integration" of mail and web services i.e. to code additional "control files" in "qmail" to ensure a most strict control over the hosters. Now this solution effectively works and gives us a real possibility to implicitly allow hosters to use web applications for sending messages via the "SMTP" server (these might be forums, registration notifications, "tell your friend" links, etc). In my opinion SPAM is, first of all, a social phenomenon not technical, and it is up to the administrator of the hosting to provide the services with a solution to reduce and, if possibe, to eliminate negative effects SPAM might draw. This is a "scourge" of the present-day Internet society. Know how qmail thinks and what it breathes. Have written many patches for this MTA. Installation and configuration of RRDTool. Gathering and visualizing all possible server activity statistics in the NetMRG utility based on the RRDTool. This has made MRTG obsolete. Ported the cluster management system (written in "Perl" and depending very much on the version of "Perl", and insecure "suidperl" as a result) into "C". The developers now can easily upgrade and support this system regardless of the version of "Perl". LDAP installation, configuration. LDAP database planning, design, security considerations (TLS/SSL), access security policy, LDAP database replication within the LDAP cluster, pam_ldap, nss_ldap, samba + ldap, apache + ldap, squid + ldap, and all the support. Free mail services project. A clustered mail system based on my research on qmail, LDAP, distributed file systems. This project was a real challenge, and successfully done. Achievements: [life@hostname:/usr/home/life]# I'm ROOT # uptime 11:22AM up 554 days, 23:13, 0 users, load averages: 3.43, 5.80, 8.61 [life@hostname:/usr/home/life]# I'm ROOT # 05/2002 - 06/2003 Altron Inc.

Additional Information: I have been working for six years in the IT field. My best quality: I am a very fast learner. I enjoy working with RDBMS servers. Always try to raise my qualification level even if I have to pay much for it. Now I am learning Oracle8i. Have a clear idea of Oracle8i and can install it on FreeBSD, Linux or Solaris and begin working with it. Innovative, team player, eager to add the work output of the Company. Receptive to changes in the field and to new technology. Strong planner, organizer, and problem solver A true follower of the "Correct" and "Hard" System Administration as such; was brought up on "A Student's Guide To UNIX" by Harley Hahn, and "UNIX System Administration Handbook" by Evi Nemeth, Garth Snyder, Scott Seebass and Trent R. Hein. Logical, practical, analytical and good level of interest in technical work and people. Independent-minded, persistent, determined, practical around solving logistical or technical problems, also feel that I can work as a system analyst, since lately I have been successfully doing more analytical work than purely technical. "Admin-dictator" - security is above all, but it does not mean that users cannot work in the system, they just must obey some very simple rules which are not very difficult to follow. Wife and children do not limit me. Nevertheless I live for them; I would have been nothing if it hadn't been for my wife. My best quality - youth of mind, its openness to novelty and innovation. I can say "I don't know" to five of ten questions, but ten of them will be solved. My worst quality - I am a very demanding perfectionist. Hobby: Professional quality photo, UNIX.
