Historically I've been a Unix/Linux/VMware sysadmin, though I've moved into a professional services role doing automation/orchestration/config-management.

Are you me?

Honestly, your nick is familiar, so I'd only rejoice to hear you were in the 07974 for Unix during such exciting times (Random love, shadow legal, blue November etc).

Go learn mgmtConfig!

Afraid that wasn't me. Though I've used this nick in many places over the years, including various tech/sysadmin IRC channels, and other social media sites.
