Jeff,
  Might I recommend what I am doing.  I too am managing 2 e3000.  But am also in
the process of learning Sun Solaris and HPUX, so I can help support the over 100
Unix servers here.  I am going to HP World and taking the Saturday Seminar for
HPUX System Admin.  So with on stone I get to fry my brain twice.

Steve

I have submitted three possibilities for my training expenditures for this
fiscal year to my superiors.  They are:
HP World Conference
HP-UX System and Network Administration II
MPE/iX Network Administration

I have been the sys admin for our wonderful HP3000 979-100 & 937-020 for 2
years and recently became the backup for our HP-UX sys admin.  I have taken
a UNIX course at a local Tech College this last semester.

My question to you is what do you 'think' would be the most beneficial?  I
am very comfortable with MPE with the exception of the networking side and
am quite new to the UNIX world but am learning fast.  I know the HP World
Conference is next month and need to plan if I am going to attend.

I am sure this will generate a lot of response but would like to benefit
from people with more time under their belt than mine.  Just wondering...
