We are a new, small, business based in the UK with a 1&1 dedicated Server.
We have full root access by ssh etc. We also have Parallels 10.2 installed.
We have a development company who are creating a web based application for us but the server is always playing up.
What we now need (ASAP) is freelance Linux Admin.
I have split what we need into to: initial and ongoing.
1) Initial work
We need the server set-up properly with all security and possibily VPN connectivity and the normal user and admin tasks. Much of this is already working but needs checking and optimising (some may need reinstall - its OK if you want to start again with a clean install).
The following components (and possibly more) need setting up, configuring and security checking:
Linux
Users – create and allocate security permission, home directory etc.
Domains (we have 10 domains .com, .[login to view URL] and .de, they need to be so that everything is routed to one)
Apache
Tomcat – a java menu on web server
MySQL
PHP
PHPmyadmin
Mail server
Parrallels 10.2
VPN – need to access each other’s pc and server securely
FTP - standard stuff
Backup – Host provides backup on second server need to automate process.
2) Ongoing Work
Check the sever/reports on a regular basis
Setup server monitoring (internal and remote third-party service)
Respond to server alerts (quickly?)
Respond to our requests for change or help - as planned
All the above can and will be better defined.
Do you have any questions?
What type of service can you provide?
How much will it cost for EACH project;
Please seperate quotes 1)Initial, 2) Ongoing
We work in UK time.
MUST have references for similar work?
MUST be LINUX God or a least close........
Must be able to communicate regularly by email AND mobilephone AND Skype)
MUST be realiable, accurate, methodical and tidy - we want the work documented....
MUST have good english.

Greetings,
I'm a freelance system and network administrator with extensive experience with Linux-based systems, specifically when used to deploy web applications. I have been employed as the lead administrator at several large internet providers and have run data centers that boasted greater than 99.999% uptime.
I'm familiar with the software you mentioned and as a matter of fact have contributed code to some of them. It's my feeling that a good system administrator should know how to program, as it's necessary for automating tasks and "gluing" various software together. I'm also very security conscious, ensuring that everything is locked down tight.
I'm available immediately and I'd like to talk with you to learn more about your needs, as I feel I'd be a good fit for the project. Please feel free to contact me.
With regards,
Tom Howell-Cintron
