The Register UK ☛ Linux admin asked savvy scientist for IT help and the boffin blew it
Welcome, gentle reader, to another exciting week at the coalface of tech and therefore the anticipation of five joyous productive days ahead and a fresh edition of Who, Me? – The Register's reader-contributed tales of tech gone awry.
This week's main character we'll Regomize as "Igor" because he used to work in a lab back in the day. The lab was full of networked computers, but none of the boffins – for Igor was a boffin – knew much of how the software side of it all worked.
What Igor did know how to do was put together the custom cables and RJ45 connectors that linked it all up. Thus it came to be that when one of the network admins needed a hand adding some new Linux boxes to the network, Igor was recruited to handle the physical stuff while the admin worked magic at the keyboard.
