The meeting topic for this month is as follows: Checkpoint Next-Gen Firewalls Wyatt Zacharias will present Checkpoint Next-Gen Firewalls. Checkpoint firewalls feature next-gen features such as IPS, Application and Web control, Download Sandboxing, HTTPS deep inspection, and advanced central management capabilities. Checkpoint software is available on a variety of platforms, including their own hardware appliances and any standard x86 platform. Wyatt will demonstrate how to install and set up the software in a virtual environment, and how to get started with the next-gen features of the firewall. RTFM: true/false Brad Vokey will cover the basics of how these "do-nothing" commands can be used in useful ways. The group 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. ******************************************************************* Please note our new meeting location for this month: *Room 1M28* Manitoba Hall, University of Winnipeg, entrance on Ellice Ave. between Spence and Balmoral St. Parking is available on the surrounding streets and in the lots on nearby streets.

The meeting topic for this month is as follows: LISA Review and Intro to Docker Katherine Scrupa will summarize her experience from the training portion of the 31st annual Large Installation System Administration conference. The training section had a devops-heavy focus, including Docker, Golang, PostgreSQL, Git, tuning, and CI/CD. Katherine will also give a beginner-level demonstration of Docker containers. RTFM: systat UNIX systems in the 1990s routinely came with terminal-based system performance-monitoring tools. Linux and FreeBSD unfortunately did not continue this tradition with the exception of [44]top(1). OpenBSD has had standard system monitoring tools since inception, but in 1995 they added systat(1), a full-screen system monitor designed to run on the console or in a terminal. Adam will demonstrate the use of systat(1) and describe some of the interesting details it displays that are still difficult to get today on other systems. The group 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. ******************************************************************* Please note our new meeting location for this month: *Room 1M28* Manitoba Hall, University of Winnipeg, entrance on Ellice Ave. between Spence and Balmoral St. Parking is available on the surrounding streets and in the lots on nearby streets.

The meeting topic for this month is as follows: Perl PDF::Reuse Brad Vokey will give a brief demonstration of how to mass produce similar (but not identical) PDF documents in Perl by re-using a starting PDF file as a template. Perl::Reuse is very fast, and gives you the capacity to produce many PDF pages per second creating very big PDF documents if necessary. RTFM: Pioneer Pioneer - A game of lonely space adventure - will be demonstrated by Trevor Cordes. Not just a game, Pioneer is a full-blown space simulator with realistic Newtonian physics. After you figure out how to not crash into planets or over-shoot space stations by mega-kms; explore the planets and other star systems, work as a trader to make a few bucks, or arm up and become a pirate or assassin. Beautiful spacescapes make this a demo worth seeing! The group 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. ******************************************************************* Please note our new meeting location for this month: *Room 1M28* Manitoba Hall, University of Winnipeg, entrance on Ellice Ave. between Spence and Balmoral St. Parking is available on the surrounding streets and in the lots on nearby streets.
