I mean feel free to give it a try but be careful of what you sign. You don't want to be held responsible for lost data because the client was to cheap to do things the right way.Okay I'm starting to feel where you peeps are coming from.
I want to make it clear that I'm not trying to hate on you @DRE. I don't want you thinking anyone here is.I told them they should do it themselves and that they can do all of that stuff themselves. My main thing will be to create a lil folder on her main desktop that will have the instructions on how to do everything.
You're also at risk of destroying someone's business, and getting in a hell of a lot of trouble at the same time. Seriously, I dont mean to sound rude and do wish you all the best, but you're in way over your head here.The more y'all say 'don't do it', the more I want to do it. Please stop. I'm hard-headed.
True. I think that is part of human nature.I know for a fact some of you learned php only because other coders told you you couldn't do something or it can't be done.
There is a small difference here...I know for a fact some of you learned php only because other coders told you you couldn't do something or it can't be done.
I was offered an IT job but have never done this before although I am experienced in some IT aspects.
It's a new company so they are starting from scratch.
Basically I need to come up with both the software and hardware needed for:
3 offices, reception and conference room
4 desktops. 1 big printer tied to them all
Phone system comes with extension
Internet access.
They also want me to make them a website with their emails with that site's domain name and a form that customers can fill out. That I'm sure I can do in Wordpress.
I learned PHP and made plenty of mistakes along the way. But I didn't try to build the infrastructure for some one's site until I knew what I was doing. If you were the only person that depended on the IT you did (ie, you had data loss at your business), its a lot different then someone else's lively hood. That's all most of us are saying.I know for a fact some of you learned php only because other coders told you you couldn't do something or it can't be done.
This lady does not want a server.
She made a face... I have never seen before on an Asian woman, her eyes went wide like oh HEEEEECK NO
That is so what I was thinking... well said. There is a huge difference being an IT versus being a little knowledgable about computing and basic networking. Running servers to deliver mail, file server, so forth, is beyond a little knowledgable IMHO, and often requires actual IT qualifications, not a want to be IT from connecting some home PC's to work together from a NAS or such.If you have to ask how to be an IT or how do the job right .... You're not one.
Yeah that's crazy... I'm talking more like this - http://www.amazon.com/Synology-Disk...F8&qid=1372809997&sr=1-3&keywords=buffalo+nasThank you @Slavik and @BirdOPrey5 for your non-server suggestions. Really goes a long way. I'll be looking all of this stuff in about an hour. *googles NAS setup sees this*
Ask yourself one question, "Are you good at googling". if the answer is yes, then 95% of your IT skills are done.
