This is one of those questions which is almost too easy if you are familiar with Linux. Trying not to sound like a d*ck, but is it an option to rent someone to help with admin jobs?

Ed,
Don't worry about it. I wasn't offended. I have a lot of experience with linux but not on heavy metal servers. I used to have plenty of experience back in the G2/ G3 era (I was also ACE in the Compaq years) but that was back in the time that Compaq was only supporting Windows OSs and SCO.
Also the problem is that I don't have the time to "play" with a spare HP/Compaq server ( I have a couple laying around btw). I'll get round to it at some point.
I am just asking you chaps because I am sure people out there had the chance to tinker with newer and better equipment.
Thank you for your reply,
Best Regards,
spyros
