The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting online, on Tuesday, February 7th, at 7:30pm. Yes, that's a week early, i.e. the FIRST Tuesday of the month... Please note the change in meeting date for this month, and for the rest of the current year (at least until the July/August break). We are now meeting on the first Tuesday of each month. Stay tuned for a follow-up announcement, a week before the meeting date, with more information about the topic for the month. But we wanted to give you advance notice of the date change. This will once again be an online meeting. Stay tuned to our muug.ca home page for the official URL, which will be made available about a half hour before the meeting starts.

(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.

Reminder: MUUG Online Meeting, Tonight, Jan 10, 7:30pm -- Taming journald, RTFM: nmap(1)

A reminder that the MUUG online meeting will be on BBB this evening... The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting online, on Tuesday, January 10th, at 7:30pm: The Taming of journald Continues In his last presentation, Trevor Cordes showed us how to use syslog with journald, and filter out unwanted log lines. However, those bazillion unwanted lines being filtered out are still being written to disk, causing major wear and tear on your precious, limited-life SSD! In this follow-up presentation, Trevor will discuss minimizing SSD writes and wasted space by using the journald RAMdisk and size-limiting options. RTFM: nmap(1) Wyatt Zacharias will give a quick overview of some of the basic features of nmap. This will once again be an online meeting. Stay tuned to our muug.ca home page for the official URL, which will be made available about a half hour before the meeting starts. (Reload the page if you don't see the link, or if there are issues with connecting.) The group normally holds its 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.
