StaticNAT

I can tell from my traffic stats that there are people out there checking things out here at StaticNAT I can also clear see how my inability to post lately has helped my numbers to tank. I never planned on this to be a huge site and my primary income so the numbers don’t kill me. But I can say there there is something exciting to watch the graph in Google Analytics rise as well as equally disappointing when the numbers drop. To avoid this emotional roller coaster I have enlisted the help of a friend who is a great systems administrator. You could soon be seeing posts by AppleEvangelist. Both AppleEvangelist and I spend a large portion of our time in a mixed OS X (server and desktop) and Windows environment (XP and 2003 Server) but it leans heavily towards the OS X side. This systems environment I refer to is clearly a small Enterprise environment. With more than 20 edge sites currently connected via serial T1s but soon to be connected via metro-Ethernet around 50 servers, hundreds of switches and an expanding security structure this is a very unique environment to be a Mac user in.

When I say unique I don’t mean that we are the only ones doing it. Like all the information you’ll find here at StaticNAT it is not the first place it has been posted in most cases. I live by a motto that we do not live in a vacuum and that only a few times in most IT professionals lives will they get to be the first and/or only person to do something. However do to recent and ongoing massive changes in our shared work environment we are full of cool and often hard to find facts and fixes. So filling the need to create more content as well as fuel the information and eliminate the dis-information about Apple in the Enterprise we will be bringing content on this topic shortly. Who knows maybe it will becomes its own site someday. Also keep and eye on the Blogroll for some of the sites and contributers to the solutions that we will be posting on these pages.
