Network Administrator?

In most places, the two titles would be recognized as having the same tasks or responsibilities. Everything depends on environment and how they quantify titles. There are companies that use neither title, but have Computer Technicians doing all of the "administrator" tasks as well.

The industry seems to recognize a Network Administrator as someone that works with Novell or Microsoft Networks. A System Administrator works with a Unix network. Sometimes the titles can jump around, but in this area that seems to be the difference. The duties will be the same, user accounts, backups, security, installing software, etc.

I work with Novell & MS networks, and I'm a Network Administrator. My wife works with Sun Solaris and she's a System Administrator.

Hi,
My designation is Network Administrator, I work with MS -networks & bit of Linux too...
So its difficult to distinguish.

Thanks,
