***************************************************************
The next regular monthly meeting of the DLSLUG will be held:
Thursday, May 4th, 7-9PM
at: Dartmouth College, Carson Hall Room L01
All are welcome, free of charge.
Agenda
7:00 Sign-in, networking
7:15 Introductory remarks
7:20 Resara Enterprise Linux
The guys from Resara Networks <http://www.resara.com/>
will be presenting their product, Resara Enterprise Linux.
"This presentation will be about adoption of desktop Linux in the
enterprise, and how our product meets the challenges. The issues
we will be discussing are broadly applicable to any Linux
distribution and organization that wishes to adopt desktop Linux.
The key topics we will be addressing are:
Installation/Migration
Integration with legacy applications
Network Management
Useability
OSS Alternatives
Why should you go? This is an opportunity to see and ask
questions of how Linux on the desktop can be made practical
for the corporate desktop. You will get to see integration
with Active Directory, Windows Terminal Services, advanced
thin client technology, and other open source desktop
management tools and applications.
We will also be showcasing 3D accelerated graphics on a thin
client (Unreal Tournament), which to our knowledge is an
industry first! The practical application of this technology
would be 3D CAD in a thin client environment, but Unreal
Tournament is much cooler. Hope to see you there!
8:30 Roundtable Exchange - where the attendees can make
announcements or ask a linux question of the group.
Please see the website for links to directions.
If any area companies are interested in sponsoring refreshments, please
let me know.
Please RSVP so we can give a theoretical refreshment sponsor a
headcount.
