The next regular monthly meeting of the DLSLUG will be held:
Thursday, October 5th, 7-9PM

Agenda
7:00 Sign-in, networking
7:15 Introductory remarks
7:20 Protecting a Windows Server with a $50
Linux Box from Staples
presented by Lloyd Kvam
Lloyd will talk about OpenWRT, the open source linux
distribution that targets small routers such as the Linksys
WRT45GL. He recently used one to make a bridging firewall, where
a Windows computer needed protection, but there was no access to
the router.
Lloyd will talk about hardware organization, installing
packages, the layout of the default configuration, and how to
customize the routing and firewall operations.
Lloyd works at software development, preferably in Python.
8:50 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.
