Thus far we still haven't a topic or presenter for March, this month. I had hoped to get someone to do a presentation on firewalling using iptables. Since thats some what of a pre-requisite to the April presentation on Base/Snort.
In the event no one steps up to do a presentation on firewalling/iptables. Another topic came to mind that I think anyone can present on, and might be time for another entry level presentation. My thoughts there are a presentation for people that are new to linux. "I am new to Linux, what the heck do I do next?" Something that would cover, what is a distro, what is GNU and Linux, what is a desktop env( gnome,kde, xfce, enlightenment, etc) and other basic concepts we all consider basic knowledge. But really does not pertain to other OS. You will never deal with a distribution of Windows or OS X, or most any OS. Though you can have a mix of GNU and other software on the other OS. We did a group presentation a while back on various distros. We might look to revisit such in the future. But this presentation would be distro agnostic. Just covering the basics of Linux, that someone knew to Linux will not really know about or understand coming from other OS. But we can go with another topic, really up to what ever someone wants to present on. Since topics can be easy to decide on, but finding presenters, not so easy :) -- William L.
