[conspire] Servers and security

[Elise Scher]

Hi Kim and others,
    I hope to learn more about servers and security. I registered for a
Linux class at Foothill College. I just retired from my teaching job and I
hope to tech up again. I used to program for a living.
     I will probably substitute teach, which will give me a whole lot more
time to study.
     I would be happy to help out on projects in order to learn -
especially for schools and non-profits. But I need to be mentored please.

Thanks,
Elise Scher
