I am an upcoming linux sysadmin; with ability to do virtually everything on a desktop linux box (Ubuntu) ranging from desktop management to users accounts configuration and files permission management. I can rearrange disk partitions, permanently or temporarily mount and unmount filesystems and writes scripts using bash for simple automation.

I want sysadmins on NL to please link me up with any tech outfit or organization where I can work as volunteer while simultaneously learning new linux tech, especially those that has to do with server management and configuration. I have read tons of books on configuration of linux servers but realities out there; I mean in the real world cannot be equated to home self-study.

This is the only thing I want to do for the rest of my life career-wise. And I want to go as far as becoming a kernel developer within the Linux Foundation community withing the next couple of years. But i have to start somewhere.

I must emphasize that I am not really looking for job per se but a way to paylessly work whilst learning and developing myself as a Linux sysadmin. Members plz help with any useful info you have.

Thnks

God! This forum is becomin a joke. Intelligent and professionals are disapearing from NL very swiftly. 36 views just lookin and working away! where are unix experts on NL or did I post in a wrong section?

Mod could you plz help move this fp. I need this plz

Production servers are a rather sensitive thing to allow just anyone to manage and this has nothing to do with your skill or lack of it. In most IT shops even the developers are rarely given complete access. As for configuring desktop environments for end users it is mostly Windows at the moment.

Do not be discouraged though as there's always someone willing to take some free labor. I wish you luck in finding a suitable opening.
