Stories

Phillip J Fry is a junior sysadmin. He's been tasked with setting up file shares on one of his employers server, so the people working at the office can share files between each other. They have three departments. Engineering, Sales and Support. Each of those needs a separate share to write to, but everyone in the company needs to be able to read all files from all shares. Every once i a while they have customers and consultants visiting the company office, and connecting to their network, so Phillip wants to make sure only the employees have access to the file shares.

Some months later, as part of a big project, a cross-disipline group consisting of employees from both engineering, sales and support is formed. They will need their own file share, so they ask Phillip to create this for them.

The project runs for a couple of months, but is eventually cancelled. The share is no longer needed, so Phillip wants to reclaim that disk space.
