Off topic....potential opportunity

2008-09-25 Thread Ken Campbell
I realize this post is off topic, but given the wide knowledge base of users
of this forum that I have observed over the years, I thought I might tap
into this resource.
I have a need for a Sharepoint consultant for my school district. If any
members are, or know of such an individual, please email me directly as not
to bother the gnhlug listserv with this topic.

TIA,

Ken

[GNHLUG] [DLSLUG-Announce] A Teaching Compiler Written in MATLAB - DLSLUG Monthly Meeting - 2008-10-02

2008-09-25 Thread Bill McGonigle
***
   Dartmouth-Lake Sunapee Linux User Group
http://dlslug.org/
   a chapter of GNHLUG - http://gnhlug.org
***

The next regular monthly meeting of the DLSLUG will be held:

  Thursday, October 2nd, 7-9PM
at:  Dartmouth College, Carson L02

  All are welcome, free of charge.

  Agenda

7:00  Sign-in, networking

7:15  Introductory remarks

7:20  A Teaching Compiler Written in MATLAB
 presented by Bill McKeeman

   Bill McKeeman will give a talk about an ordinary compiler (lex,
   parse, tree, gen, emit, asm) designed for teaching the
   principles of compiler writing. There are a few surprises, such
   as load-and-go, integrated bottom-up and/or top-down parsing, a
   LaTeX based pretty printer, an LR(1) parse table generator, an
   Intel x86 emulator for debugging, and the like, all in MATLAB.
   He will survey the 15meg or so free download, give demos, tell
   war stories, and answer questions. And yes, it does run under
   Intel based 32-bit Linux (and Apple and WIN).

   Attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop and download
   materials from:

 http://dlslug.org/downloads/meetings/2008/10/cxcom.zip

   Bill has taught compiler writing at Stanford, University of
   California at Santa Cruz, Wang Institute, Harvard and Dartmouth.
   He has written more than 100 compilers, some for money,
   including the current MATLAB JIT. His website is at
   http://cs.dartmouth.edu/~mckeeman .

8:50  Roundtable Exchange - where the attendees can make
 announcements or ask a linux/oss question of the group.

  Yeah, those are nice, but all our stuff is collocated with servers that
  already have serial ports ...
 
  That's exactly the reason to get a serial console server.

   I think his point is that the stuff can be connected to the serial
 ports on existing *nix hosts for zero dollars, while a serial console
 server would be non-zero dollars.


Right, I could have been clearer: we only have 3 or 4 network devices at
each location that need to be connected to serial ports for backup-admin
access, and we have many many servers collocated in the same racks, each
already having at least one serial port on them.

Thanks for all the info folks!  I'm still digesting it all as I had to put
the relevant project on the back burner for a bit, but I'll let you know
what I settle on.  I am particularly intrigued by the use of screen (a
favorite of mine also) to do the trick!  Thanks, Jarod.

 Back in my days of managing my Sun boxes, we had a Lantronix and I hated it.
 My experience with them is *years* old though. I'm partial to the Cyclades
 (now Avocent) myself. Formerly had the TS2000, now Avocent pushes the ACS48.
 I've also used Logical Solutions SCS series (liked supporting them when I
 was in CT because they were local, Milford, CT, got to visit their offices)
 and some guys here at work also use the Raritan Dominions. They are all
 Linux based.
 
 If you are looking to roll-your-own, basically all of these Linux products
 do their port management with Portstlave.
 
 Linkroll:
 Avocent Cyclades ACS: http://www.avocent.com/Products/Default.aspx?id=6846
 Logical Solutions SCS: http://www.thinklogical.com/product.asp?ID=27
 Raritan Dominion: http://raritan.com/products/serial-console-switches/
 Portslave: http://sourceforge.net/projects/portslave/

I use both the Cyclades TS2000 and Avocent ACS32 at work.  Cyclades
boxes have an underpowered CPU (they grind to a halt if you try
to actually do 32 interactive, plus 32 sniff sessions all pushing 115k
full rate over 64 different ssh sessions), buy the Avocent ones are
rock solid.

Very expensive solution though, but they run Linux which make them
cool.
