Hi, I'm looking for somebody to teach me Linux / Ubuntu administration generally, and, specifically, to help me migrate possibly infected Wordpress installations from a server on [login to view URL] to a new server there. I've already tried doing the migration myself once, but the new server soon started sending out Spam again. So I'm planning to create another server from scratch again. And this time do it right. I already have intermediate skills in Linux system admin. I'm looking for somebody with excellent command of the English. I am eager to learn, so I envision us using Teamviewer to share an SSH screen and Skype (to hear one another's voices) to work on the box together, with me asking questions via audio. I will pay $60 per hour. You would have to be available for these sessions some time during 9 AM and 7 PM ET. I'm looking to work on this during weekdays preferably. If we could on occasion add an hour or two during weekends as well, that would be great. Initially, I'm envisioning 5-10 hours of working together. But I'm sure there'd be on-going opportunities. If you are interested, please send me some information about your experience in Linux, and in dealing with bot-infected boxes, and a bit about your professional background. Also, please bid $30 on this project. If we work together, I will accept your bid and award you that money immediately. For our actual collaboration I would then create a new project through which I'd pay you the $60 per hour. Thank you. Marc.

Hello Marc, I am an experienced Linux administrator. I can authenticate myself so you could be sure that I will do no harm to your server / services nor abuse your data. I started using Debian within my infrastructure in XX century and using it successfully to this day. This older (and more mentally stable) brother of Ubuntu. More strict in policies which fits my sysadmin habits. If your site were infected, first of all you need to figure out what exactly happened and how.. There's no point moving site to different server just to let it happen again. Source of your issues might vary. It might be vulnerability in some of wordpress plugins or wordpress itself. Sometimes it's just bad configuration that lets send out spam. Being aware of what is happening within your system is most important. BTW: Using Teamviewer is a bad idea. It's not free software and there are better ways to make it (actually part of an admin routines). I'm ok with Skype though. best regards, Szymon

Dear Sir, I am Thomas, a 22 years old french that graduated from university back in 2012. Back when I was a kid, I only had a computer to play with, so I spent all my time on it. That's why I now have more than 7 years of experience in Linux systems administration, and I have knowledge with the most popular Linux distributions. I worked as a network/system administrator at various companies where I set up WebServer, DNS servers, Databases, Monitoring, Backups, Scripting jobs, Virtualisation and so on. You can checkout my profile and see how much Linux-related project I successfuly completed. Please come and have a chat with me, I am kind and helpful. Regards,
