I am pleased to announce SyncBuilder 19990105. The SyncBuilder framework allows you to develop Java applications that synchronize data between a host and 3COM PalmPilots. It is based on the popular pilot-link package which is a language independent Unix library for the same purpose. SyncBuilder is stronger when it comes to code reuse and the ability to synchronize many devices simultaneously across a network. To download SyncBuilder go to: http://come.to/SyncBuilder SyncBuilder comes with complete source-code and is licensed under the LGPL. It has been developed under RH 5.0 with JDK 1.1.6, but should also work on other Java capable platforms. Contributions are welcome!

If anyone out there is interested in joining our band of merry men, please contact me by either emailing me directly or by responding to this post. For the foreseeable future the KLUG will continue to use the kingston.os.linux newsgroup and email for communications. Please monitor that newsgroup for more information. At some point in the future, when membership increases, a mailing list may be set up to simplify communications.

Juni 1999 <URL:http://www.linuxtag.org/> Der LinuxTag hat sich als die gr��te Linux-Anwendermesse im deutsch- sprachigen Raum etabliert. Die Veranstaltung wendet sich an ein breites Publikum, das Linux im Heim-, Ausbildungs- und Gesch�ftsbereich einsetzen m�chte. Neben einer Ausstellung wird an zwei Tagen ein Vortragsprogramm angeboten, f�r das Referenten gesucht werden. Alle Themen rund um Unix und Linux aus der Sicht des Anwenders sind interessant, z.B. - - Vorstellung von Programmpaketen, Erl�uterung ihrer Einsatzgebiete und Konfiguration - - Einf�hrung in Skriptsprachen - - Aspekte der Programmierung - - Systemadministration. - - Erfahrungsberichte des Einsatzes von Linux in der Praxis - - Vorstellung von Distributionen oder Konzepten, die fuer Anwender relevant sind. Die Papers zu den Vortr�gen werden auf dem LinuxTag-CD-ROM und sp�ter im WWW ver�ffentlicht. Gegebenenfalls kann der Aufsatz als Artikel im Linux-Magazin abgedruckt werden. Den ausgew�hlten Referenten wird die Anfahrt und �bernachtung erstattet. Wir bitten um Einsendung eines ca. einseitigen Abstracts, aus dem Inhalte, Ziele, vorgesehenes Publikum und m�glicherweise notwendige Vorkenntnisse hervorgehen. Abgabe der Abstracts: 1.

Stevens Jr.) Subject: SFI Director - New GPL System Management Tool for UNIX Date: Sun, 10 Jan 1999 00:39:54 GMT =====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE===== The SFI Director is a tool for managing distributed, hetergeneous UNIX Systems. Its functionality includes System Configuration, Application Distribution, NIS & NIS+ Management, and User Management and Dynamic System Documentation. Currently in Version 3, it is in service at a number of customer sites, to manage networks of 50 to 200+ UNIX nodes, under Solaris, Digital UNIX, HP-UX, Red Hat and SuSE Linux. Version 3.0 introduces a new distribution Algorithm, which substantially improves the flexibility, reliability and documentability of the distribution process. Furthermore, an install script is available which substantially simplifies the installation under Red Hat Linux 5.2 as well as Solaris 2.5.1, HP-UX 10.01 and SuSE Linux 5.3. To everyone who tries it out: Enjoy! We look forward to you comments and contributions.

New, in version 2, is that the C code-generation independent parts of the translator have been reused for an option (-st80) to generate Smalltalk-80 code instead of (or in addition to) C. The program is available from Sunsite mirrors such as ftp://ftp.uni-rostock.de/Linux/sunsite/devel/lang/objc/ (it consists of two packages; you have to start with the bootstrap package, as indicated in the .LSM file) - -- This article has been digitally signed by the moderator, using PGP. http://www.iki.fi/mjr/cola-public-key.asc has PGP key for validating signature.
