Couple of questions. I missed out on the first training but have since install Fog and figured out a lot on my own. Question 1) I think I have the basics mastered. How far beyond that will the workshop cover? Question 2) Will there be time to touch on more advanced features like Green Fog, Backing up Fog, etc... ?? Question 3) Can someone bring their own equipment as a Fog machine? Question 4) The statement said cost per school. Does that mean two can attend for one price?

(free opensourcee imaging) workshop we did earlier this Spring with Chuck and company, we are planning a second and maybe third one. Implementing a FOG imaging appliance will be a real time saver for you, so we are aggressive on scheduling this to get the class taught and your imaging appliance installed before school starts. The first FOG workshop filled up in 4 hours, so make sure to enroll immediately by contacting Wendy ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) If the August 4th date does not work for you, let us know. We have some secondary dates (September 1sh or October 6th) on the calendar that will be used as a second tentative date for the workshop if the short lead time keeps us from getting the computers in time for the August workshop Learning from classroom feedback after the first workshop, we are re-designing the class and will be providing the FOG server to your school after you build it as part of the class cost recovery fees. WHAT: FOG (computer imaging) 1-day Workshop WHERE: Area IV Learning Technology Center, 200 S. Fredrick, Rantoul, Illinois 61866 WHEN: Wednesday, August 4th 2010 9:00 a.m. to 3 p.m. (Date is tentative, depends on equipment availability) HOW MUCH: Depending on the equipment cost, about $300-400 for each school (remember, you keep the server). CLASS SIZE: 12 firm CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY to get enrolled. We will let you know what the final cost for the class will be, but will guarantee it not to be over $400 per school (one FOG server) Syllabus follows.... Own Your Own Fog Server Class Outline Instructor, Scott Williams Host, Learning Technology Center 4 Abstract: This is a 1 day workshop to take a total (Linux) novice from zero to walking out the door with an imaging server for their school. Participants will be given a Dell GX-520 Optiplex Desktop computer as part of their registration price. We will start as a bare metal machine and turn it into a Ubuntu based Fog Server. We will also have available for use target Optiplex desktops that we'll use for pushing and pulling images. You will walk out the door with a Certified CDI refurbished Dell Optiplex GX-520 loaded with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Operating system and Fog application, ready to start imaging your computers at your school. ______________ Sincerely, Ron Egolf, MCSE Network Analyst, Area IV LTC 217-893-1431 (O) 217-841-4311 (C) [email protected] _______________________________________________ Tech-geeks mailing list [email protected] http://lists.illinicloud.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech-geeks
