Favor - Sysadm Class Help

[John Sechrest <sechrest@peak.org>]

	Hello everyone,

	I have a favor to ask of you.

	I am teaching a unix system administration class this
	term. I have 45 students in the class.
	
	As a part of the class, I have an Ask-A-Sysadm tool
	set up. It distributes questions among people.
	
	I have over 40 members of this list who have signed up
	to be "experts".
	
	But in addition, my students sign up to be "experts"
	for the users.
	
	IE, I have 3 levels of questions
	
		Asker		-----> 	Askee
		user		----->	sysadm student
		sysadm student	-----> 	Professional
		Professional	----->	Professional


	So, my students should be signed up to answer "user" 
	questions. My original goal was to get some K12 teachers
	who have been using Linux in K12 to ask questions of my
	students, but that cultivation has not sprouted yet.
	
	So... The favor:
	
	Could you please go to http://www.peak.org/dl/sysadm/ask-a-sysadm
	
	And ask a "user level" question of my students?
	
	They are just starting. And they don't know anything. They
	are using linux as the basis of the class.
	
	If they got some questions from people other than me,
	I think that it would change the tenor of the ask-a-sysadm
	experience for them.
	
	Hopefully, you have some "common questions" that you get
	asked. Perhaps you could ask those of my students?
	
	If you find the Ask-A-sysadm interesting or useful, I would
	like to hear comments about how it is set up and to know
	if any of you get answers that are meaningful from my students.
	
	Thank you for thinking about this.
