Heh.. I have a great job. If I go get some Cisco training (which my company has offered to pay for), I'll get a nice big fat raise. Just gotta find the right training course and stuff.

I don't want to be a network engineer. Thanks, though..

Not looking for certs. Just need to know basic admin skills on a PIX, and maybe some basic switch and router stuff.

[twyst3d]

[Skeezoyd]

I know PIX very well, if you can't get training or ever need some advice or a few pix configs to play around with PM me.
