Re: [Wlug] REMINDER: Upcoming WLUG meeting

Hey all, if no one has any objections, I'll be doing a presentation on a package I've been working with for a few weeks now called puppet. Puppet is a framework designed to automate system administration tasks (package installation, configuration, user management, etc). It's pretty powerful, and particularly useful if you have multiple machines that need to be managed. http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ Hope to see you all there! -- Frank Sweetser fs at wpi.edu | For every problem, there is a solution that WPI Senior Network Engineer | is simple, elegant, and wrong. - HL Mencken GPG fingerprint = 6174 1257 129E 0D21 D8D4 E8A3 8E39 29E3 E2E8 8CEC

Hi there, Welcome! The meetings are held in the Lower Wedge, which is between Daniels and Morgan Hall (buildings A and H), which you can see on the campus map: http://www.wpi.edu/About/Visitors/Images/walkingmap.pdf You don't need an ID to get into the area, and there should be plenty of parking on the quad area in front of the buildings.

http://www.theaardvark.com/ $6/month LAMP. Nothing to be installed on your own computer. The hosting owner works in a school system in Plano TX. His clients are literally from all over the world.

But the more I read, the less I like these Oranges. You don't get full control over the VPS? You can't edit the main apache config file? You only get one user-account on your virtual server? It sounds to me like it's only a half-virtual server. They still manage a lot of things for you... but they don't really say that anywhere that I can see. -- Aaron Haviland

Sorry to ask again, but someone recommended a web hosting company and I've lost that email. Someone named the "guinea pig" recommended a place that used VMWare so thatI could have full root access... If you could remind me of who that was, I'd appreciate it! Mike
