Doesn't that run everything together like so:

* Manage user accounts Monitor filesystems and processes Work with
* configuration files in important formats such as XML and YAML
* Administer databases, including MySQL, MS-SQL, and Oracle with DBI
* Work with directory services like LDAP and Active Directory Script
* email protocols and spam control Effectively create, handle, and
* analyze log files Administer network name and configuration
* services, including NIS, DNS and DHCP Maintain, monitor, and map
* network services, using technologies and tools such as SNMP, nmap,
* libpcap, GraphViz and RRDtool Improve filesystem, process, and
* network security
