The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, October 13. The meeting topic for this month is as follows:
Process Accounting and Log File Management
This month, Adam Thompson and Wyatt Zacharias will be co-presenting. Adam will be talking about UNIX process accounting, focusing on the lastcomm(1) and sa(8) commands. Wyatt will then talk about managing logs using cronolog(1).
RTFM
In the RTFM segment this month, Rob Keizer will be showing us Homebrew (brew(1)). Homebrew is the easiest and most flexible way to install the UNIX tools that Apple didn't include with OS X.
Door Prize
This month we will be giving away (among our other usual prizes) two tickets to Bsides Winnipeg 2015.
Security BSides is a global, non-profit organization that exists to facilitate the creation of local information security conferences. These conferences are ideally organized by locals, and feature local presenters. Unlike other conferences, BSides events are low-cost, relaxed, and inclusive, and attempt to encourage interaction amongst organizers, speakers, and attendees.
BSides Winnipeg 2015 will take place on November 14th & 15th, 2015 at The King's Head Pub from Noon to 7pm. Cost is $20 and comes with a meal each day.
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.
