Hello, my name is Ferino Mardo but you can call me Rino. I am a network professional having been in the industry for more than 18 years. I used to be a coder (from assembler to C) but now working as a network manager. I don't consider myself a newbie though I also don't call myself a h4ck3r :-) but I do know my way around computers and the Internet.
I have time available and want to contribute it to this dynamic team. i used to do shell scripts but that part is now rusted because my company now is using closed source softwares. As the nature of things outside of the US, we techies don't have any specialization to speak of. If you know a little sql command, bang!, you're the dba. but i do know my dns (also rusty), firewalls (closed source too), WAN management, UTP network cabling (handmade), install and maintain server OS, do patches, and other things as needed to do the job.
Lookin at the FIG, I'm not sure which to join I hope someone can suggest a starting point?
Am looking forward to contribute and hope to "see" you soon!
Regards,
Rino Mardo
