Greetings all -
We are rapidly approaching the next meeting, which, as we usually
aim for, falls on the 3rd Wednesday of the month!
Crikey - Was last month a corker or what? M3000, T5440 and Open Storage
discussions, as well as the hairy-chestedness of Arya Abdian breaking
our heads with more Active Directory, PAM, kerberos, GSSAPI, and general
freakyness than I think anyone was prepared for. Thanks, Arya!!!
This month, we'll take a quick look at what's new in OpenSolaris
20008.11(ish) and perhaps a quick chat on creating IPS packages.
We'll then get into a quick planning session for the next 6 months, and
get into the pizza and drinks for some party time!
Please respond in the positive OR negative ASAP so Pizza and Drinks can
be planned. :)
Where?
Level 7, 476 St Kilda Road, Melbourne,
When?
Wednesday December the 17th, 2008 at 18:00 for general

To anyone who meets with or talks to folks interested in Solaris: Please
let everyone know about the meeting, the time and the date. We had a
great first meeting, and would love to continue to grow the group.
A note on access: The Lifts in the building and entrance to Level 7
automatically lock early in the evening, so access will be provided by
Sun folks on-site. A sign will also be placed close to the ground floor
lifts with a contact number, should you arrive after the start of the
