[Posted to man.unix.general and other news groups] ------ Forwarded Article <9s9813$b57$1@canopus.cc.umanitoba.ca> ------ From gedetil@cs.umanitoba.ca (Gilbert E. Detillieux) The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, November 13. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: Mini-HOWTO's on NTP and XINETD This month, MUUG members Kevin McGregor and Gilbert Detillieux will each be covering a short topic, in a mini-HOWTO format. Kevin McGregor will be talking about NTP, the network time protocol, and the UNIX daemon which provides support for this protocol. Gilbert Detillieux will be talking about XINETD, a powerful replacement for the UNIX INETD daemon, used for launching numerous TCP and UDP based network services. The group holds its general meetings at 7:30 PM 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. ********************************************************************** New Location: Once again this month, and from now on, the meeting will be at 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. Limited parking is available for free on the street, or in a lot across Ellice from IBM, for $1.00 for the evening. Indoor parking is also available nearby, at Portage Place, for $2.00 for the evening. ********************************************************************** For more information about MUUG, and its monthly meetings, check out their Web server: http://www.muug.mb.ca/ Also note that MUUG maintains two mailing lists, called "muug-announce" and "roundtable". If you're not already on these lists, I encourage you to subscribe now: http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/ The "muug-announce" list is used for monthly meeting announcements (such as this one) as well as other important announcements of interest to MUUG members. The "rountable" list is meant to be a forum for follow-ups to topics discussed at the meetings, or for round-table-style discussion on other topics that come up between meetings. Of course, for this to be effective, we need to reach a certain critical mass. So, please subscribe, and stay involved! -- Gilbert E.
