Tip 1
Today I have been tiding up my flat, it's very small, really really small. If you are like me and you have cables left right and centre, you need a place to put them away, but then to be able to find them when you need them.
I also have a bunch of those neckstraps that you seem to get at every convention or meeting.
So now I have my ethernet cables hanging from itsafeonline neckstrap, power cables from netintelligence.
Naturally the only cable I want now is the one I can't find :-(
Tip 2
Keep one of those really cheap LED lights on the floor, at the back of your PC so you can see what you are plugging in to.
Tip 3
Always make private backups of your RADIUS logs and your Squid proxy server logs.
Both are time stamped, RADIUS records the IP address of your customers/users and Squid records what websites they have looked at.
This information is invaluable for when you belive you should have a "pay-rise", or your users decide to be ...... "difficult".
If you have any trouble sounding condescending, find a Unix user to show you how it's done. ~Scott Adams

I stole an idea from a caver friend of mine: those LED headlamps have gotten really cheap. It's great for poking around in the darkness behind your PC, the corners of your toolbox, under furniture, and many other places.george
