Subject: [Muug] MUUG Meeting, Jan 10, 7:30pm -- VPN over SSH,
	VM Install of Linux
Message-ID: <201201042126.q04LQGe05837@iron.cs.umanitoba.ca>

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, January 10.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   VPN over SSH, VM Install of Linux

   This month's meeting will start with the usual round-table
   discussion and RTFM topic, followed by two mini-topics.

   January's RTFM is brought to you by the letter "c" and Michael
   Doob, who will present cron(8) and the crontab(1) command.

   Next, Sean Cody will show us how he does VPN tunnelling using
   SSH and tunnel devices, and a few other ssh tricks like session
   mixing and ad-hoc port forwarding. Adam Thompson will then
   demonstrate installing CentOS 5.x and Ubuntu 11.10, and discuss
   their relative footprints, in a virtual environment.

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.

Message-ID: <201202072250.q17Mo3b00608@iron.cs.umanitoba.ca>

*Please note the date change for this meeting, which is a week later.*

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, February 21.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   Linux LVM

   One of the most important new developments in the Linux 2.6
   kernel was the Logical Volume Manager, version 2 (or LVM 2).
   Logical volume management is a widely-used technique for
   deploying logical rather than physical storage. With LVM,
   "logical" partitions can span across physical hard drives and
   can be resized (unlike traditional ext3 "raw" partitions).
   Kevin McGregor will summarize the basic principles behind the
   LVM and provide examples of basic operations which can be
   performed with it.

   February's RTFM will feature the traceroute(1) command,
   presented by our president, Katherine Scrupa.

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.

Message-ID: <201203061633.q26GXtX28325@iron.cs.umanitoba.ca>

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, March 13.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   The Cloud: The catchphrase of the last year, and two years to come.
   The basics.

   Everyone by now has heard of "The Cloud." Most people, even in
   the IT industry, are baffled as to what the cloud actually is.
   This no-frills, down-to-earth presentation by Rob Keizer will
   be on what it is, what its uses are, and the basics of setting
   up a private one.

   March's RTFM will feature the sort(1) and uniq(1) commands,
   presented by Brad Vokey.

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.
