Map: http://www.cat.org.au/map12121.gif [contact] Matthew Arnison - please let me know if you are coming [email] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [web address] http://www.cat.org.au ----\\ [the full rave] //---- The cat internet server runs active-sydney, along with many other activist websites and mailing lists. It is a PC running GNU/Linux, an alternative operating system to Windows. GNU/Linux is free software, that's free as in free speech, as well as free beer. The current server has been running almost non-stop for about 4 years. But to get many new features that we want, and to improve security, it's time we did an upgrade. We've chosen debian 2.2 linux for installation. We'll be setting up a new machine from scratch, to put online for a couple of weeks before doing a changeover to become the live system. We also want to try and write some documentation as we go along, about decisions and ways of doing things. Our main goal for the day is to get the install done and teach people as part of that process, but if we can help others get their systems installed, we'll do that too. <<< the catgeek mailing archive - technical discussion at cat >>> Archived at http://www.cat.org.au/lists/catgeek Unsubscribe by sending empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug
