want to change an alias you
can ask MattBrown or JohnBillings. Or
anyone in the Sysadmins group. They will go edit <tt>/etc/aliases</tt> on <tt>mail.wlug.org.nz</tt>. This mostly applies to [WLUG] officers and administrative roles, not people with shell accounts.

-There is no reason for people to leave the WlugSysadmins group after they have left the club or left the country. Through the magic of the Internet they are still able to help out, and their help is appreciated. Also hopefully it will give them incentive to keep paying their dues.

Perry has always been the UberAdmin. Generally building of the system happened at DaHoose. Craig set up the mail, Daniel handled [LDAP], John, Perry and Matt, the wiki (and Matt, Planet WLUG). John wrote the user admin scripts and WlugLibrary. Jamie was our hardware/networking point guy. As of Feb 2009, Daniel did the most recent physical maintenance since he lived in Auckland, but there are countless people who have helped out with the machine/s over time, and no discussion would be complete without a special thank you to Sahil Gupta and his amazing falling-on-Ctrl-Alt-Del keyboard.
