I am seeking a position as a computer forensic/recovery specialist.  (I would appreciate any leads at Kroll Ontrack.)  The world of Linux opened up a world that was completely invisible to me in my Windows-only days.  I now know that a Linux live CD can be used to rescue data from an unbootable Windows installation.  I also know about the various forensic/recovery live CDs and even started the forensic edition of Swift Linux.

As a result of working on Swift Linux, I now have experience with Bash scripts.

Are there other career paths I should consider?  I've heard that I should consider becoming a systems administrator.  What do you think of this career?  What are the best ways I can get relevant experience?  (I'm thinking along the lines of setting up an old computer at home as a firewall or server.)

Are there other career paths I should consider?
