FireHaus Network

Don Kruse has been learning the trade of the sysadmin since 1984 when he began using his mom’s KayPro computer. In 1988 he set up his first Token Ring network for the camera shop he managed. In 1992 he was using his first Mac after years with DOS and Windows. During the dot-com era he legitimized his de-facto role as a sysadmin in literally the first dot-com (they invented the banner ad). Nowadays he can be found exercising demons from a set of Xserves or setting up a SMTP server so his wife can send email from London.
