Those titles still exist, but after you read enough job postings for 
"network administrator", "network manager", or "network engineer" you 
might not remember what they meant to you originally because HR people are 
generally not tech-savvy, or jobs have to be posted in classification 
buckets that don't fit very well.  I've seen more job postings than I care 
to count that asked for a "network engineer", but the closest duty the job 
actually called for was someone who knows how to manage Exchange and 
Active Directory.
