7:00pm Nov. 19th Rm. 130 - Tanner Bldg Dr. Zapalla will continue his networking presentation from Nov. 5. We will discuss more networking topics that include learning about iptables, the great swiss-army knife of network packet management. Need to set up a simple firewall to block access to everything but a few services? iptables! Want to blacklist those pesky script kiddies that are trying to brute-force their way into your SSH server? iptables! Want to modify the handling of tcp packets within the network stack in order to improve throughput on wireless networks? iptables! So yeah, it's pretty cool stuff.
Our good friends at Adaptive Computing (formerly Cluster Resources) will be providing pizza for this meeting. If you're interested in working for a Linux-centric company here in Provo, bring a resume and/or talk to one of the employees that will be at the meeting. Once again, the first 25 people to show up will get invites to preview Google Wave!
