The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, June 8. The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:
IPCop
IPCop is an open source Linux distribution that turns an old (or
new) PC into a stateful firewall. IPCop is geared towards home and
SOHO users and offers services such as DHCP server, HTTP proxy, IDS
and VPN server, which are all fully configurable through an
easy-to-use web interface. IPCop has very low hardware requirements.
In this presentation, Jonas Lippuner will show how to install IPCop
on an ordinary SD card and a Mini-ITX board.
Before the break, as this month's RTFM topic, Adam Thompson will
speak about the awk(1) command.
The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of
every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and
August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a
MUUG member to attend.
**********************************************************************
Please note our meeting location: The IBM offices, at 400 Ellice Ave.
(between Edmonton and Kennedy). When you arrive, you will have to
sign in at the reception desk, and then wait for someone to take you
(in groups) to the meeting room. Please try to arrive by about 7:15pm,
so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30pm. Don't be late, or you may
not get in. (But don't come too early either, since security may not
be there to let you in before 7:15 or so.) Non-members may be required
to show photo ID at the security desk.
Limited parking is available for free on the street, either on Ellice
Ave. or on some of the intersecting streets. Indoor parking is also
available nearby, at Portage Place, for $5.00 for the evening. Bicycle
parking is available in a bike rack under video surveillance located
behind the building on Webb Place.
