Trev,

I understand your confusion as you may have failed to notice "Familiarity 
with" before the list and "preferred" directly after it.  Notice that the 
only actual requirement is "experience with Linux and Windows."

You are, however, closer on the size of the IT dept, as it's only a few 
people right now, and we are certainly looking for people who are 
interested in smaller firms.

To clarify, "Jr" here means that the person would be helping "Sr" sys 
admins currently doing some of the items in that list and this would be a 
great way to learn more about the technologies mentioned.

It really matter more that the person is competent than the specific 
skills they currently poses.

Regarding the 50/50 issues Sten mentioned, we are primarily Linux-based.  
However, as Jr Admin would be potentially working closer to users, where 
Windows tends to pop up more often, they would probably see closer to 
50/50.

Cheers,
