Hi, Can i suggest we pick a subject every time we get together? For example: installing a desktop (in 20 minutes), installing a server, installing an apt-cacher, e-box, configuring apache, etc.
This would allow us to have a bit of focus, and might attract more people. Obviously, obtaining a fresh copy of the latest distros should always be possible. If we would work with EACOSS, our first mission could be to rip out that nasty XP box they have that dials in to UTL (and keeps on retrying when the connection is dropped), install a proxy server, install an apt-cache and upgrade their clients. (in any order). This would help EACOSS and might be interesting for admins who are als maintaining networks elsewhere. rgds, Reinier Battenberg Director Mountbatten Ltd. +256 782 801 749 www.mountbatten.net Be a professional website builder: www.easysites.ug On Saturday 04 April 2009 13:30:21 Jan Oscar Holbo Rasmussen wrote: > On Fri, 2009-04-03 at 17:02 +0300, Simon Vass wrote: > > After the stampede to come and enjoy a beer/cola at Chi Bar, have > > decided to try something a little more traditional geek, and organize a > > demo day.
