Hello All,
My name is Jason and I’m an IT professional with 15 years experience in desktop support, helpdesk, and networking. I just started a new contract to hire with this company that uses the spiceworks software. I am the only IT person with the company and the people that originally setup the network are long gone. I have never used spiceworks but over the past two weeks am learning more and more about it capabilities. I was hired on to this company for a desktop support roll and my pay goes hand in hand with that title.
Here is my problem. I am the only IT person at this site. They have a network with 100 users and about 9 servers with what looks like 2 R22008 servers. Not everyone logs in to the domain ( not sure why) some work off of workgroups. There has been no setup of AD and no security for logins. My boss just informed me yesterday that they want to buy an 2012server machine and incorporate (migrate) it into the network. They want to hire this company, which whom I spoke to build, configure and install the Domain controller here on site. When I spoke with the tech that was billed to do this work he informed me that he had never installed 2012 server. He did a site evacuation and didn’t even know we already had a domain and 2 2008R2 servers.
What should I do. I am very good at what I do but this is a little over my head and pay grade. I don’t know were to start or even how to convey this to my boss... PLEASE ADVISE...help..;o)
