Paonia Ezrine

Paonia Ezrine has been active in the computer field since the late 80's. From the beginning, her focus has been on servers and the client machines they serve. Over time, though much has changed, the fundamental building blocks, those of being a system administrator/engineer/analyst, have stayed the same. A background in analysis and creative problem solving allows Paonia to step into technical situations and successfully address them,regardless of whether the specific technology involved is already familiar to her, or not.

She became interested in Open Source software (specifically Linux) during a time in her life when most of her work was being done with Non-Profit organizations who could not afford the hardware and software needed for the commercial operating systems of the time. As her clientele grew to include educational institutions and businesses, she continued to focus on open source solutions whenever appropriate.

In her free time, besides reading and enjoying Vermont, she is the technical lead of the Furthur project (www.furthurnet.org), an Open Source peer2peer network for sharing legally trade-able music.
