Hi - I read this job description bellow and this does not seem like a
*BSD Unix specific job, infact it looks like a Linux admin job.  This
also looks like a generic Monster.com job posting, there are no details
about who is looking for work.

My understanding, and others can feel free to correct me, but this jobs
list is intended for positions relating directly to *BSD Unix.  For
Linux specific jobs I would suggest reaching out to a Linux specific
mailing list.

Cheers,
-pete
