I'm currently working with a client in Alpharetta who is looking for an Sys Admin with strong Web (Tomcat/Apache) experience.  Any opensource app experience is highly desired.  Salary is in the 80k range.  Please respond with a resume, phone call, or email to discuss.  Interviews are taking place this week.  Thanks.

Shane,

   I'd love to experiment with these! I've been trying to find
time to put together a package to do exactly what you're
doing.
   The company I work for, Linux Networx, has an internal
script called "Burn-Fu" that does this. I don't know the details
of it too well, but one code they use is called "memtest86".
It does an excellent job of sniffing out memory problems.
Burn-Fu also reads and write to every sector on the disk(s)
but I don't know what they are using to do that. There is also
a code for hammering the CPU. I'll see what I can find out
about the codes (I bet the disk code is a variant of Bonnie++).

Thanks!

Jeff
