Ibne Seena International School was established in 2000 and in 2001 they deployed a computer lab there. I, being the student, used to spend my free time in LAB and took much interest in LAB’s operations. I assisted the network and windows admin till 2006 and when he left, no other admin was hired so I took the position (non-paid) of windows and network admin. Mostly tasks were day-to-day maintenance operations regarding network, windows PCs, print and file servers.
