<end of official announcement>

This position is manager of our student lab facilities.  We currently
have a mix of PCs, Macs, async terminals for access to our Unix systems
and 3270 terminals for access to our IBM mainframes.  We run Novell netware
for the PCs, and you would be responsible for administering the Novell LAN.
We also run tcp/ip on that LAN (Ethernet) for telnetting to the Unix and
IBM systems.  That end is administered by the Unix admin (me).  We are
installing a gatorbox to tie the Macs in to all of this (including support
for NFS on the Macs and lpr/lpd printer sharing for all systems, including
the IBM mainframes.)  Does this sound like fun?  If so, I should point out
that, while you will be welcome and indeed encouraged to be involved in all
of this, a lot of what you will be doing is organizing student lab assistant
schedules, answering a lot of questions and being our first line of defense
for user problems.  Still sound like fun?  It could be for the right person,
especially one who views it as a learning opportunity.

If you are still reading, UNF is a smallish but growing branch of the Florida
state university system, located in Jacksonville in extreme northeast Florida.
Metro Jacksonville is a city of about a million souls, with ample recreational
and cultural opportunities, including decent beaches and miles of navigable
inland waterways.  UNF offers undergraduate and masters degrees, including
a masters in computer or information science (two degrees, take your pick.)
We have an IBM4341 and an IBM4381 mainframe running VM/CMS, two Sequent
multiprocessors (a Balance and a Symmetry, each with 8 processors) and a
number of Unix workstations in addition to the student lab described above.
You will have access to any of these.  We are connected to the Internet,
BITNET and UUCP, as well as FIRN, Florida's state network, and to NERDC,
the Northeast Regional Data Center in Gainesville.  We are a major distri-
bution point for Usenet in northeast Florida.

If you want more information, feel free to email me, but if you are interested
in applying, contact Human Resources here ASAP.  The deadline is real tight
and you _must_ submit an application to be considered.
