We're not sure if he ever kept anything or maybe he lost it or what.

My dog hoards his toys too. Always guarding them even if I am not going to
take them. He's got about 20 toys and he wants to play with them all and
not let you have any.

New machines won't speed anything up network wise, correct.

I don't think he lost it. Probably has never entered it into a formal
electronic doc and has it all scribbled in some notebook that's falling
apart. :-)

Either way, from what you're saying, you should be in good hands with the
new guy. Ask him to create a complete infrastructure documentation including
a Visio of the network, IPs, basically the physical layout, with devices and
models numbers, as well as an Excel sheet with multiple worksheets with all
the machines documented as to models, asset tags, cpu, ram, hard drive, and
a list of all user accounts including the administrator, passwords,
configuration (DNS, DHCP, WINS, etc etc), VPN config (if you have one), the
router's config, port remaps, IP addresses, etc etc, and email all of this
to the principles involved, as well as yourself, since you seem to be the
contact person for all IT needs.

This is what I do for each of my clients as a standard procedure, and it
surely helps when you have to check, change or review six months later. This
way nothing is hidden all assets lists and configs are documented. No one
can remember all of this, especially if I can't even remember what I had for
breakfast this morning! :-)
