Note: This position is open due to an internal promotion.

The Winnefox Library System is looking an NT server manager.  Winnefox

PCs and network used for library automation, Internet access and
e-mail.  NT servers also host file sharing, CD-ROM products, anti-virus

run on a DEC Alpha computer using the VMS operating system and an NT
server.  WALS has implemented DRA's Web2 catalog, and uses DRA's report

the Alpha to NT servers as the library migrates to DRA's TAOS products.
