Volunteering wouldn't bother me but I guarantee it would be more work then they bargained for to begin with! I know how to login, logout, change directories and list files. Beyond that, I know how to find my manual (both on the shelf and on the 'puter). >Techskills is in Bloomington (actually they are right next door to >us...)

I have learned most of my computer skills on the job but it leaves gaps in what you know and it takes too long when you need to be up to speed quickly. I would prefer Linux but the Unix would be ok if that was my only choice. I took my Novell training at Benchmark in Edina and thought they were really good - I passed all my exams the first go. I think they may be teaching some classes on Unix but I think it is more specific, advanced stuff and I don't know how good they are for Unix. >> running Slackware that is supposed to be a proxy/filtering server >>(probably soon to be moved to a Dell PowerEdge and changed to RH), and >> >HERETIC! :) For slackware, RH or Dell??? Or (D), all of the above? :-D Apparently the proxy/filtering software that our group of districts purchased runs better on RH these days than slackware. Which figures, since I just bought a manual for slackware. :( But at least I won't have to run it on a Windoze server.
