[interchange-biz] LA, CA, USA: IC person wanted

[Andrew Papp]

Tritech Research is a small biotech equipment company.  We invent, 
design, manufacture and market equipment to help scientists who do 
molecular biology and genetics research.  Here is our current situation, 
and what we need help with:

Our web site has been (and is) hosted under cpanel and we designed a 
fairly customized site (custom page layouts, user tags for shipping 
calculations, service of static pages to speed up common requests, and 
mysql databases) using the IC 4.9 available through cpanel.  We set up a 
mirror site on a computer in our office running RedHat 7.3 so we could 
develop changes before launching them live on our "real" site.

Since then, there are 2 new developments.  Our mirror server died, and 
we got a new one.  And, our webhost has graciously decided to let us run 
our own copy of IC 5.2 instead of the stock 4.9 still in cpanel.

To create a more stable, up-to-date system, we'd like to update our 
mirror server to Fedora Core 2, and IC 5.2, then, once everything is 
working, install IC 5.2 on our ISP server and go live.

Our sysadmin / IC person has moved on, and we need someone to help with 
this, and possibly other things we're working on.  We have installed 
Fedora Core 2 and IC 5.2 on the new mirror server, but there are things 
not working right.  For example, Apache is broken, and when I tried to 
reinstall it, it appears that yum is broken, too.

If you know your way around Linux and IC well enough that these issues 
and adapting the site from 4.9 to 5.2 sound like no big deal to you,  
then you are probably the right person for us!  If you are not very 
expensive and would like to continue working on developing and improving 
our website, all the better.  Preference will be given to people who are 
based in Los Angeles and who might want a long term position with 
Tritech, but all candidates will be considered.

Please check out our site at the link below, and reply to me regarding 
each of the specific points I mentioned in this post and how you would 
like to charge for them.

Thanks!!!!!!!
Andrew
