First off, I would like to discredit myself - If I was truly smart, I would have finished off this documentation a LONG TIME AGO.
That said, I would like to thank Michael D'Amour for getting me into linux and, well, leaving at an opportune time for me to take over lab work.
Truthfully, i'm not sure i've ever met him, i've only heard things about him and had contact to him through a proxy source, still, KUDOS to you, Michael!
Without the initial support and mentoring from Charlie Marshal, I doubt any of the labs and servers would be functioning the way they do now.
Aside from being an integral part of the initial server and lab testing, Charlie has put himself out in the fray more times than I can imagine to stand up for me when the labs didn't work right or when I decided to skip his classes in order to sleep!
Thanks must also go to the CIS Department at SUNY Potsdam - I couldn't think of a better place to be during my years in college.
Most of what I learned was self-taught, but was enabled by the support of the department and by the having access to the labs and servers.
