Hey there,

I am Alan Lee... born in Christchurch, New Zealand. Grew up in Whangarei, New Zealand and moved to Sydney, Australia at around the age of 19 and have been here since.Done a lot in my time so far, travelled a bit, worked at a few difference places and getting involved more in the I.T. community such as user groups.

I currently work in I.T, and from what I can gather - I will be here for a while. I have already done 11 years in this industry - started at a local computer store in Whangarei doing work experience, rose to my own business and now have settled down to a desk job doing System Administrator tasks in the enterprise content management and hosting worlds.

I seem to be a master at creating scripts (Dos or Linux) in regards to automating things where I work with web and SQL servers and general network things. I come from a Microsoft and Linux background and am comfortable with both systems. I remember when you had to download Linux (eg, Slackware) on floppy drive and how you had to fdisk/format a hard drive before installing Windows 3.x.  I like to use the best tool for the job, so either a Microsoft or Linux solution depending on a bunch of things. I tend to dip my fingers into routing and firewall/network things as they come up too.

My future goals - I guess I want to stay where I am working for a while - they are good guys at where I work.

This is enough for now.  If you wish to know more - please contact me somehow.  Thank you
