You mean actually meet, in virtual cyberspace, aka meatspace? Eeuw! ;-) I'm newly back in New England after an 18-year exile; live in Monson, a bit more westerly than Sturbridge... Ted

web hosting?

by Nick Nassar

Fellow Linux Users, Does anyone have any recommendations for a cheap, relatively Apache/MySQL/PHP web and POP/IMAP email host? Preferably someplace local. It doesn’t have to be too powerful. A few gigabytes of storage space and max bandwidth in the range of tens of gigabytes per month. Thanks Nick

I'd be up for some socializing if anyone wants to meet up. Also, I'm curious, is everyone actually in/around Worcester or do we have lots of people from farther out too? (I'm in Framingham, for example.)

Re: [Wlug] Old laptop for sale - $5.00

by Adam Keck

The current buyer is still interested. Re: wireless, it's probably too old for wireless, unless you had a PCMCIA wireless (pre-cardbus). It really only has toy value at this point. E.g., it plays classic DOS games really well. For your friend, I would watch woot.com for their netbook sales. I got a new EEE PC for 170.00 a few months ago. -Adam On Fri, Nov 6, 2009 at 6:45 PM, Michael Long <mlong(a)datalong.com> wrote: > Hi Adam, > > > > Have you had any takers.

Hi WLUG So here is the info for anyone else who had my problem connecting to Verizon for the first time. (I write this for the archives) The Westell 6100G modem default IP admin and password: 192.168.1.1 admin password To access the internet and set up your account you have to go to: http://192.168.1.1/verizon/redirect.htm "Hidden Redirect Page" You click the disable button, and then your on the internet. The tech support guy then insisted on helping me set up my Verizon email. Not necessary, but I didn't want to hang up on the guy. Oh, and does the WLUG go out for beer anytime? (as in non-meeting socializing?) Ted
