Welcome to NethServer Community

Community Welcome
23

Hello,my name is Jan,

I’m, like Jelle above, from the Netherlands, Arnhem to be more precise :smile:

Since 2009 i have my own company, though we’re still doing everything and nothing, i’m more and more leaning towards a company specialized in Apple based small offices :wink:
In the past ive been active within the Zentyal community, but that got downhill pretty quickly :smile:

At the moment i am looking for a descent, but not overly expensive server that can be the “backbone of the network” beeing in small businesses i have no worries for multiple servers etc. All i need is one server that does it all, with an easy to backup system!

I too am glad to participate in a project like this.
Beeing an High Sensitive Person, i am more towards the looks and details, and not so much the underlying tech! (Hence my preference for Apple… Beauty and simplicity over choice in some cases!)

I like this project because it is still small, alowing me to grow along with it!
Seeing as i am not much a linux person yet, i worked with Debian in the past, but never more then home use, since my work is currently shifting towards network management (i use Ubiquiti for network hardware! Small price great products!) i need descent server software to go along with it, especially in cases where an OS X server is not the right choice!

Haha, never thought of it as weird, but exciting it is :slight_smile: Understand this is ‘normal’ housing but we kind of own the place ourselves.

I will!

Hi, thank you Alessio.
My name is Fabio, I work as a freelance linux system administrator for several customers and environments.
I’m in a continuous research to new solutions to improve an IT infrastructure and NethServer looks like a great system.

Thank you Alessio, my name is Martin, i work as a Unix/Linux and Storage sysadmin for the Uruguay Goverment.

I’m a linux fan, and i’ve been using linux (started with slackware, and passed through redhat, mandrake, centos, and suse) for servers (mail, web, samba, nagios, etc) from around 18 years now, and for desktop for about 7.

I’ve found nethserver more than interesting and i’m willing to take part of the project.

Hi everyone.
My name is Luca “andrew” Andreucci.
I work as a ICT security specialist, but I’ve been a Linux sysadmin for longer than I care to admit :smile:
I met nethserver from a presentation held at my employer’s and I was fascinated by it.
I’m currently trying to figure out how to start my own firm and make nethserver part of it.
I’m still just getting my feet wet, and too bad I’m doing it in my very little spare time. But I’ll keep my eyes and ears open :smile:

Rock on!

Hey there everybody!!

I have a good news… A new test server is already deployed!! =P It’s running a traffic monitor (with ntop). I’m a CentOS distro fan and it’s so cool to see this tool working so well in it. I hope that this community grows more and more. This is very important so we can share new ideas, translate some stuff and share many other ways of deployment too. So… I’m going to test other functions and when I get my Test Server finished, I’ll bring some tips and ideas.

Cheers
P.S = Sorry, I didn’t introduce myself. My name is Pedro, I live in Brazil (João Pessoa - PB) and I work with Computer Networking Infrastructure (VMware, Linux, MS AD…). Feel free to contact.

Thank you so much for allowing me to become a part of the NethServer
community.

I feel NethServer is perfectly placed to fill the computing needs of small
to medium size businesses (SMEs). As you know, under the current economic
conditions companies have to think smart to stay ahead of the competition,
and NethServer certainly helps.

NethServer gives cash poor companies the change to have the exact same (and
sometimes better) computer services as much bigger organizations.

Now Microsoft keep stripping back the functionality of Small Business
Server (exchange for example in favor of Office365) the mass market left
behind is begging for an easy to use, stable, scalable open source solution.

SME server is unable to innovate
Zentyal have become too much focused on subscription based services,
leaving the path clear for a young, smart, healthy project and community to
take the lead.

I am sure 2015 will prove an amazing year for and NethServer.
I look forward to helping wherever I can :slight_smile:

Thanks,
Warren

Hi ,

Thank you for accepting me to the community, I’m Atama, I live in Fiji (South Pacific), I work in a Telecommunication company as an IT Billing Engineer, and I’m doing a personal small project right now, which I would like NethServer to be incorporated and be part of it.
CentOS is my choice of Linux Distros for a few years now.
