by Tom Bruno 10 Mar '06

10 Mar '06

I'm looking for anyone, or place that might have the following hardware, working or not working and willing to part with it: Compaq Proliant 1600 ( 400mhz model though any 1600 will do). If you have old parts, or anything involved with Proliant 1600's send me a mail.

Agenda: The agenda is fairly open, however William Metcalf, the maintainer of snort_inline" I used to work with Will at City of KC IT department. Young guy. He is proof that you can find a way to contribute to an Open Source project that interests you. Will also has some cool stories of performing reverse hacks on Chinese and Korean crackers. Next time you see him, ask him to tell you how Robin flooded the City's bandwidth and then got them disconnected from SBC. Surely he remembers that one.

KC Snort site unavailable
by Russ Starr 07 Mar '06

07 Mar '06

It has been noted by a few people that the Kansas City Snort user group site is down. My web provider changed the server my account was on without informing me, so I have to get the DNS changed for the domain. Unfortunately, the domain is owned by another member of our SNUG, so I'm waiting on him to change the DNS records. The site can be found at http://russix.net/kcsnort until DNS is happy. Thanks, -Russ

Kansas City Snort User Group
by Russ Starr 07 Mar '06

07 Mar '06

Hello kclug members. I used to be on this mailing list a few years ago and even went to a few past meetings. I am back on this list now and I wanted to inform you of the Kansas City Snort user group that we have formed. I figured there would be a handful of interested members here that would like to participate in our meetings or future events. We have had a couple of meetings so far and I would like to welcome anybody that wants to join our mailing list, our irc channel, or come to our meetings. We are just starting off and our group's focus is a pretty narrow topic, so we are relatively small. We tend to discuss many aspects of network security... not just IDS or even Snort for that. We have planned our regular meetings for the fourth Tuesday of the month in attempt to respect your regular meeting schedule. I feel like I'm spamming, but our website is at http://www.kcsnort.org. Go check it out... I'm sorry to say that if you didn't go to our first meeting, you missed Marty Roesch who happened to be in town that day and dropped in for our meeting. It was definitely a treat for our first meeting! :) Thanks, -Russ

There is a Debian that works on there. I think it has a RISC processor. You might also be able to get OpenBSD, PA-RISC Linux or others that are specialized. I looked it up and it has something like a 80MHz processor. As far as RISC systems go, I don't know how good that is, but good luck. www.fr.parisc-linux.org/documentation/hp9000_models.html http://openpa.net/systems/715.html http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Home.jsp?lang=en&cc=us& prodClassId=-1&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=44239 www.openbsd.org/hppa.html >-----Original Message----- >From: On Behalf Of James R.

Pretty cool developments from the guys behind AbiWord: in the upcoming version of AbiWord 2.6, multiple people will be able to edit the same document at the same time. AbiWord is a cross-platform word processor. Here is a screen cast: http://uwog.net/blog/?p=29 -- Jason Clinton <me(a)jasonclinton.com>

Re: Which wireless card?
by Justin Dugger 05 Mar '06

05 Mar '06

I have a DLink DWL-510. Its drivers are not in the kernel, but rather as a seperate install similar to how nvidia works, but with more features exposed in Open Source liscenced code. These drivers are provided by Ubuntu in the linux-restricted-modules-'uname -r' package and have worked painlessly for me during install. I'm not sure which CD you're talking about that has an executable file on it, but driver CDs rarely have any useful programs on them, linux-wise. I've had a well versed network tech for a local uni suggest that orinocco cards are fantastic. I can't remember what he said about cisco cards. But definately make sure when you pick out something that you see the device listed by the drivers you intend to use.
