Hi, all. I'm unlurking here... Here is a question for anyone who deals with the web in some way in their system administration job... actually, for any sysadmin... If you are the system administrator over a (web) server, do you administer all the services on that box? Including databases? We have maybe 16-20 Linux (mostly) and SCO servers running various services. My boss wants me to let him know what services are running on our two web servers including apache, samba, mysql, etc. and he is thinking of delegating responsibilities across the servers to four of us... a "web admin", Unix admin, NT admin, and network support person--his words were, he wants the services divided into "discrete parts to be allocated to individuals." Is this the way it's done in the "real world?" Or does it vary, according to the size of the company? I was hired on as the administrator of two NT web servers, then we switched to Linux, the guy who hired me left, the new boss thought I was only doing the web part of administration, and gave the system administration over to the Unix admin. I'm left with very little system administration, really, none to speak of...Now my boss is looking for some other service to turn over to me, rather than one box. It's a little frustrating, since I want to do system administration, and I'm not getting the experience...
