Getting Paid Fairly When Job Responsibilities Spiral? 495

greymond writes "I was originally hired as an Online Content Producer to write articles for a company website as well as start up the company's social media outlets on Facebook and Twitter. With budget cuts and layoffs I ended up also taking over the website facilitation for three of the company's websites (they let go of the current webmaster). During this time the company has been developing a new website and I was handed the role of pseudo project manager to make sure the developer stayed on course with the project's due date. Now that we're closer to launch the company has informed me that they don't have the budget or staff in place to set up the web server and have tasked me with setting up the LAMP and Zend App on an Amazon EC2 setup. While it's been years since I worked this much with Linux I'm picking it up and moving things along. Needless to say I want to ask for more money, as well as more resources (as well as a better title that fits my roles), but what is the best way to go about this? Of course my other thought is that I'd much rather go back to writing and working with marketing than getting back into IT."

Comment When did /. become networkin 101? (Score 1) 673

and when did this guy become an IT person when he doesn't understand networking/firewalls.

Take ONE of those servers, and make it the firewall.
you obviously have some hardware for it.

Having each box with it's own firewall is a waste of your time, and impossible to manage.

Which university is this? even the small college I went to, with 1100 students, had a real firewall. there has to be at least one smart kid around there who has a clue. I hope he's reading this!
