Charter Telephone reviews, boylston?
by John Stoffel 29 Sep '18

29 Sep '18

Hi, Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky all the time, esp when it rains. So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter. I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet another set top box to have to deal with... So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service? Thanks, John

RFC: WLUG BBQ July/August timeframe
by Chuck Anderson 23 Jun '12

23 Jun '12

We usually have a WLUG summer BBQ around July or August, so I'd like to get the planning discussion going now. Are people interested in having a BBQ this year, and if so, would someone be willing to host it? WLUG should enough in the bank to fund the food, so all we need is a place with a BBQ grill and a time. Comments? Ideas? Chuck

At least I know you were reading my posting :) As I stated in my email, I will never send your resume anywhere without talking to you first.

looking to join the local linux community
by Wolf Bronski 18 Jun '12

Hello, My name is Rich. I've been using Ubuntu and CentOS for a while now. I'm into servers and I'm interested in documentation. I'd very much like to come to the next meeting as I live very close to WPI. I've written a guide about running a Redmine server on CentOS 6.2. It's not complete because i want to add other repositories like Git and SVN besides Mercurial (hg). You can download it at http://107.22.171.253/hg/test/file/fb531026ab76 I've written it in DocBook but there is also a PDF in the repo. Please email me if you wish. Have a great day.

Hi folks, The next Worcester Linux Users' Group (WLUG) monthly meeting will be held next Wednesday, June 13, at 7PM. The location will be the WPI Campus Center, Chairman's Room (room 129).

Most people call this "Cloud" computing. One key feature of this is moving servers out of the data center and onto virtual machines. My presentation will describe this as Multitenancy.. This talk will cover technologies from RHEL5, RHEL6 and RHEL7. SELinux, Virtualization, Sandbox and Secure Container Applications." Afterwards, we will go out for pizza and continue our discussions. See you there, Chuck President, Worcester Linux Users' Group
