Liz has not strayed far from the server room in the past 18 years: She worked for NCR Corporation, starting in 1984, where she did development on MailReady, a C/UNIX messaging product. At NCR, she performed a variety of technical functions, from devel- oping and maintaining NCR’s UNIX SVRV.4 operating system, utilities, and applications, to international support for LAN/WAN communications. When Microsoft introduced Windows NT, NCR assigned a team to the BackOffice products, and Liz was given EMS/Exchange. She has worked closely with the Exchange per- formance team at Microsoft for nearly two years on under- standing server scalability and performance issues. In 1995, Liz founded MicroStaff, a Microsoft Solution Provider and Certified Technical Education Center. From her first project in Exchange migration at Shell Oil, to supporting and training the military, various government agencies, and Fortune 500 companies, Liz has continued to take on roles of support ana- lyst, trainer, author, administrator, and consultant for Exchange and clustering. Liz was co-author for Exchange Administrator Survival Guide (Exchange 4.0). She has also developed three courses on Clustering for Windows NT utilizing Exchange and SQL, two administrator courses on Exchange 5.0 and 5.5, as well as end-user manuals for Microsoft Outlook. She, and the team at MicroStaff, has focused on supporting and educating their clients on Exchange, clustering, Windows NT/2000, IIS, SMS, and disaster recovery. 128_Exch_FM 2/2/01 1:34 PM Page ix [...]...
