I have often noticed that the conservative nature of good system administration is at odds with the impulses brought on by programming. This is not to say anything at all about you or Torsten, just to mention that a good backup (or lead) sysadmin does not necessarily need to come from the programmer world. You probably are looking for someone who you feel shares a similar conservative nature (control freak, etc). Once you find that person, it's easy to pass some responsibilities on. Until you do, I have no good advice, sorry :( -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | The major sin is the sin of being born. | | steve@lobefin.net | -- Samuel Beckett | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
