The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, May 14.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   OpenBSD Installation

   Did your Linux machine just get hacked? Do you want to run an
   operating system that hasn't had a remote root exploit in four years?
   Try OpenBSD. It runs on Alpha, Intel, most Macs, SPARCs, and more. It
   has binary emulation for most UNIX operating systems including SVR4
   (Solaris), FreeBSD, Linux, BSD/OS, SunOS and HP-UX. Shawn Wallbridge
   from Synack Hosting and Chris Lawson and Sean Cody from Tin Foil Hat
   will be installing OpenBSD 3.0 on a machine and explaining the
   process. They will explain the ports system, how to use it and talk a
   bit about packages, and finally how to keep the system up to date
   including CVS and patches.

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.

   **********************************************************************
   Please note our new 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 7:15
   PM, so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30 PM. Don't be late, or
   you may not get in.

   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.

Also note that MUUG maintains two mailing lists, called "muug-announce"
and "roundtable".  If you're not already on these lists, we 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!
