Subject:Tech Writer to Sys Admin (UNIX) From:Michael Andrew Uhl <mikeuhl -at- MINDSPRING -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 17 Jun 1998 13:50:17 -0400
TECHWR-Lers:
After eleven years of working as a technical writer, I am beginning a
transition to UNIX System Administrator, at least half time, responsible
for maintaining SGI and Sun workstations, several Windows machines, and
an NT box. Have any of you ever worked as a UNIX SA? I'd like
constructive advice from anyone on what books I should read, training I
should get, and so on.
Thanks.
-Mike
