I am a Senior UNIX Administrator currently working as a full-time employee at Tripos, Inc. in St. Louis, MO.

Before relocating to St. Louis in the summer of 2003, I had spent the prior 16 years living and working in Southern California, where I got my start in the computer industry. I have now been working as a UNIX Admin for over 19 years, primarily as a Sun Solaris admin, starting all the way back in the SunOS 3.2 days on Sun3 VME-based Motorola systems.

While working here at Tripos over the three years, I have been managing Solaris, IRIX, HP-UX, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems; along with EMC Clariion SAN and Celerra NAS storage.

These pages provide information relating to Solaris system administration, as well as general UNIX administration. It includes links to presentations, tools, best practices, etc. that I have developed and/or become familiar with during my career as an admin.

Thanks for stopping by,

Rodney
