Replying to this is probably a really stupid thing to do... However, I'll say one thing, your CV should show your job decription as it was stated in your job contract i.e. what your employer hired you to be. If your employer hired you as "senior sysadmin" then that's what you can put in your CV. if you put anything other than that then you're likely to be found out at a later stage in proceedings, what you actually did in a practical sense is an entirely different matter and something a prospective employer should have enough sense to determine through other means.
