Hi,
I was given a challenge by my boss to be an administrator of a server where a SQL data base is running, where as I have never being an administrator before.
I would like to get some advice from anybody about how I could be a good administrator and what are the things that I should know,to do a better service to my boss.
Thanks in advance.

just walk into these days. *sigh* your best hope
is that this "server" isn't connected to the internet.
This would actually give you time to go get some
schooling on how to manage an SQL server and basic
admin practices without having to worry about
falling behind on security measures and being compromised
by someone on the internet.
My best advice? Tell you boss you don't know anything
about being an administrator and advise them to
get someone who does. Once they do that, hang out
with them and see if they'll help you learn the basics for free. :) [ say_whaaat's advice column | Ask say_whaaat A Question ]
