Dear Prospective Employer

	My contract with IBM Research will be 2 years old in December.
The project I am working on is finishing. I am looking for something
new, exciting, challenging and engaging to commit myself to.

	The type of position I seek is in senior level systems
administration and/or network administration. I work very well in
environments where I am able to make decisions and implement them. I
work best in a smaller department, though I am productive in large
ones.  As I love to travel, I would also welcome an opportunity for a
position which allowed or required it.

	I have considerable experience with heterogeneous and
homogeneous clusters of Unix based systems, as well as stand alone
machines. Recently, I have been writing and maintaining a lot of Korn
Shell based tools, and would welcome an opportunity to expand my
experience with perl and other languages.

	While most of my current work centers on design and maintenance
of a clustering environment used for numerically intensive computing, I
also assist with news and e-mail systems, as well as networking
queries. I have experience with DNS, NFS, AMD, UUCP and NIS to name
just a few. My hardware knowledge is also fairly extensive.

	In the past, I have been a hostmaster as well as maintaining
the Internet gateway for Oregon State University's Computer Science
Department. I have considerable experience with news and email systems
on Unix, and I run a public access system from my home. I have also
worked with Macintoshes and several other PC class machines. A list of
the hardware, software, and networking systems I am familiar with is
included in my resume.

Thank you very much for your time,

sincerely,

Lee Damon
