Sysadmin ignores 25 THOUSAND patches, among other sins

razorfishsl

I'm working on a setup currently.....

3,000 staff with mobiles.

maybe upward of 50KM of cables at one remote site.

network built using HP office connect 16's' because they were cheap, with TP-link & recent linksys

most wireless network kit so old it is using security cracked in 2008

2 server psu fires in the past soot covered the computers and it's never been cleaned

0 cleaning schedule in the server room for the last.......... 10 years

0 network diagram.

0 UPS

main incoming network & telicom equipment comes in under a 3 phase 600v switch panel.

With network cables handily using the 3 phase distribution ducts because they were 'easily accessible'

and windows servers so old, it makes Floppy drives look like advanced alien technology....
