Hi Everyone,


Please welcome our latest forums staff, Jorge Vicetto aka jmbsvicetto.

Here's an intro from him :

I was born at Terceira Island, Azores. I've completed high school at
Terceira and attended the computer and information science programme at
the Portuguese College IST (Higher Technical Institute) at Lisbon. I've
later returned to Terceira where I started working as a net/sys admin
while completing a B.Sc. in Computer and Information Science with UMUC -
University of Maryland University College. I've got my B.S. on June
2004. I was accepted for the M.Sc. in Internet Computing at the
University of Liverpool on September 2005, having transfered to the M.
Sc. in Information Technology (specialisation in Information Security).
Currently, for personnal reasons, I've suspended my enrollment on the
programme.

I've been working at the Angra do Heroísmo Nursing School since
September 1999 as a net/sys admin and consultant to the Director's
board. I've also worked as a consultant for the Azorean Health Finantial
Institute for 1 year and a half. I'm currently also working since
October 2004 to the Angra do Heroísmo Hospital as net/sys admin and
consultant.

I started working with Linux around 1996. The first distribution I used
was Slackware, probably 3.1. I then used 2 or 3 versions of Red Hat
starting at 4.0 and including 5.2. I later switched to SuSE and used
versions 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 7.0, 7.1, 8.0 and 9.0. From there I
switched to Gentoo in March 2004 with the 2004.0 release. I think I
tried the 1.4 release, although I'm not sure. I also tried FC1 and FC2,
but never used it for long. I've since then used openSuSE 10.X at work.
I also run SLES 9.0 at work. For recovery and testing I've used several
versions of knoppix and sysresccd.

I spend most of my time at work around the 2k/2k03 AD, doing the usual
user, group and permissions management; looking over the network; taking
care of the webmail and proxy servers; and creating, updating and
maintaining our workstations. I've designed and helped implement the
network at the Nursing School and was assigned to accompany the
implementation of the network at the Hospital. I've designed and
implemented the AD at both places. I've used Ghost and G4U to create the
workstations for both places. I'm currently implementing park management
with OCS_NG and GLPI. I keep a Postfix+Cyrus+Horde system for webmail
and am currently switching it over to Gentoo. Throughout the years I've
been maintaining systems running Oracle and Notes. I've also been
running VMware GSX and now ESX Server.

So, throw up the usual parties, say hello when you meet him and make him
feel at home :)

Regards,
