REMINDER: WLUG Meeting - Thursday!

by Andy Stewart

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Everyone, We'll be having our next WLUG meeting on Thursday, November 11th at 7:00 PM in the usual place. Chuck Anderson is going to talk to us rather informally (a la the Gentoo meeting) about what is new and different in Fedora Core 3. He'll also have a PC or two for a live demo. Coming in December: Our guest speaker at the December 15th meeting will be Jon 'maddog' Hall. If you never come to another WLUG meeting, be sure you make it to this meeting! maddog is a fantastic speaker that you don't want to miss. He has spoken at several WLUG meetings in the past and the feedback has been universally positive. Please see the WLUG website for more details about maddog's talk. Starting in January 2005: It looks like our meeting location will be used for a class on Wednesday evening. It may be possible for us to find another location on campus for our Wednesday meetings. Another possibility is to have occasional meetings on Monday evening. Right now, we alternate between Wednesday and Thursday evening. I know that if we changed to Mon/Thurs meeting nights, some folks would like it and others would not. There's really no way to make everybody happy here, except perhaps to find another campus location for Wednesday evening meetings. Stay tuned...nothing is definite yet. Later, Andy - -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBkAlbHl0iXDssISsRAtpNAJ4393ZnBSizHZIWrUK0KTx3YOV/7gCfd1lL oPBP1OtzG93IQVrlPYQ7QNU= =QKLg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

SSH stops working?

by Skip Gaede

Hi Folks, I have both Linux and WXP on my home machine and do remote maintenance on a Linux gateway. The linux gateway is configured for doing IPSEC as well as SSH. Some time in the past few months, SSH has ceased to work between both WXP and Linux on my system and the remote gateway. I have not changed anything on either end, as far as I can remember. What's strange is that I can setup an IPSEC tunnel to the gateway, and do SSH to the gateway from the local subnet (my IPSEC IP is 168.192.1.128 and I can SSH to 192.168.1.1). If anyone has any suggestions on how to debug this, I'm all ears. Thanks, Skip

Yup, BT works great. The server I had it on is torn down at the moment, so these iso's are going up on another machine. If I have the opportunity later I'll put up a torrent node. -- Linux/Open Source. Your base belongs to you, free, forever.

It should be automatic, just power down, plug everything in, turn it on and it'll be seen. There shouldn't be much in the way of configuration changes. I haven't been able to see any difference between the two, but it's still the "better" way of doing things, and you might as well use the better cable since someone spent the money on an LCD that can use both.

nvidia & digital (?) output

by Bill Mills-Curran

Can anyone point me in the right direction for configuring my nvidia card to use the digital output? I just unboxed an LCD monitor, and I'd like to try the digital video. Is it just a reboot? Should I expect much (any?) difference. Thanks, Bill
