RC - I'm just looking to work part-time in addition to my current job, and although I would prefer some kind of contract beggars can't be choosers, so I would settle for private work such as you describe.
Cypherus - Firstly, many thanks for your help with my WLAN issues

I'm not sure if the MCDST is really what i'm looking for. I would like to take qualifications that are geared more towards advanced systems and network support. If you could recommend which courses you think fit those criteria it would be of great assistance
Cheers,
Ox
