2004-2005 :

I created an installation CD in order to install the servers we were selling very quickly using knoppix, syslinux and zenity. I also created a program to generate configuration files from user input using perl and XML.

October 2006 :

For one of our customers I installed a filtering proxy using Squid, SQuidGuard, Apache and mod_clamav. This proxy used NTLM authentication which was bound to an LDAP server.

2007 :

Changed the whole automation system (created in 2004/2005) to use the original debian-installer CD and modified packages on a different repository. In order to do this I had to repackage several Debian packages, set-up our own repository (using apache and reprepro) and we used SVN and track to manage our own source code.

April to July 2007 :

Update of the intranet of Lille's chamber of commerce.I added features that the customer had asked for. The whole project was PHP based.

July 2007 :

I rebuild the whole infrastructure of a customer. I installed a PDC (Primary Domain Controller) using Samba and LDAP. I also installed a fax and mail server. The whole infrastructure was built arround two LDAP servers (slave/master replication)
