Meeting Oct 12th 2017 at 7pm. Topic: Ansible Location: WPI Campus Center Rm 331
by Tim Keller 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

Hey Gang, Our next meeting will be on October 12th at 7pm. I'm going to give a quick talk on Ansible. It's a handy tool I use for install software on LOTS of computers. I'll also talk about Ansible playbooks as well. After that I figure we can talk about things people might want as topics and then head down for pizza at Tech. As usual snacks and refreshments will be provided. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Hi Folks, A buddy of mine and I have been kicking around the idea of starting a local organization for building small robots the would be used in competitions. As a place holder name, we have chosen Autonomous Small Robot Association/Society/League. Attached is a link to a PDF file that provides a bare bones outline of the proposal. Basically, we would be following the rules espoused by the PiWars.org web site and to that end, I am building a little robot that will use image/vision processing to navigate the challenges (RPi, opencv, tensorflow) If anyone of this list is interested, please contact me at dglaser(a)glaserresearch.net or Ron Mourant at mourant(a)gmail.com Regards David Glaser Link to file https://www.dropbox.com/s/w6mq1ywqlxy81qg/Proposal-2017-09-22.pdf?dl=0

Presenters: Logan Brown and Tim Keller Ceph is a scalable storage system that provides object, block and file system services.

HI gang, I am looking forward to seeing all of you that evening! Please look around and see if you have any photos/jpegs/pngs from past WLUG events, and bring them if you can. Maybe you have one of our WLUG Install Fest CDs that Tim silk screened for us way back when? Perhaps you have a copy of Doug Waud's network slides (with the two paper cups and a string).

Re: [Wlug] DNS not resolving
by Richard Klein 04 Aug '17

I hate to admit that I'm using Kali for a daily driver, but it usually works fine. Plus, it's based on debian. Anyway, I created /etc/resolvconf containing: nameserver 8.8.8.8 and that did the trick. I have connectivity now. I still want to understand the mechanics. As you can see, the NetworkManager GUI doesn't agree with /etc/resolvconf, and the file seems to take precedence over the GUI. http://imgur.com/a/Rngbf On Thu, Aug 3, 2017 at 9:16 PM, John Stoffel <john(a)stoffel.org> wrote: > > Richard> I did a dist-upgrade on my computer.

20th Anniversary WLUG BBQ August 10th!!!
by Tim Keller 04 Aug '17

04 Aug '17

Hey Gang, I want to start by thanking long time member Doug Mildram for graciously offering up his home for the 20th anniversary WLUG BBQ! Date: August 10th, 2017 @ 7pm. Location: 540 Linden St, Boylston MA Topic: Marvel at 20 years of WLUG and where linux has come in 20 years! Food: If you have special dietary requirements feel free to bring your own stuff. I don't believe that Doug keeps a kosher home so please take that into consideration as well. I'm going to bring an assortment of Hotdogs / Hamburgers / Brautwurst, etc. As well as Chips / Dips / Soda. Doug has also mentioned that his pool is fully operational so if you're inclined to swim, bring appropriate gear. Please email me directory (turbofx(a)gmail.com) that you're coming so I can accurately purchase food and drink. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Can you ping 8.8.8.8? If you can’t ping it, that would explain why you can’t resolve even if resolv.conf is correct. The syntax that others mentioned is good, you should be set if you can ping. If you can’t ping that, can you ping your gateway, what’s you up if you can’t? Hope that helps.

Don't confuse resolv.conf with resolvconf. The file /etc/resolv.conf is the traditional configuration file that says where to find a name server. Try putting this in there: # cat /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 8.8.8.8 Depending upon your distribution, there may be magic whizz-bang stuff that automatically rewrites this file based upon other configuration files or guis. I think resolvconf is one of those. It may overwrite /etc/resolv.conf, but if a handwritten resolve.conf works, that gives you a place to start. At least that's my first guess. -- Keith

I did a dist-upgrade on my computer. Afterward, I got an error related to a broken link for resolvconf. I read somewhere that the file gets created if it doesn't exist, so I unlinked and deleted the offending file (I think it was /etc/resolvconf, but I don't remember). Now I don't seem to have any DNS. I can still access my routers menu by typing in the dotted quad, but no alpha URLs. Any ideas? I entered the Google DNS addresses: 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.8.4 in the network settings GUI. That looks good, but addresses still aren't resolving.

Well that saddens me. I was hoping there'd be a meeting despite me. As for the BBQ I'd like to have it next month if at all possible, barring that having it in autumn worked out really well last year. I'll think up some dates and put them out. The one person I REALLY want to attend is Andy, so Andy since I know you read the mailing list, let me know what works for you and I'll engineer it so. Maddog, that counts for you as well. I'm going to start planning an *actual* list of topics as well. Later, Tim.

Well, that didn't work out so well. I went to the location at the time, but there was not only no topic, but no meeting really. Only one other person was there. He said he is not on the mailing list and so did not get the cancellation notice. I said I am on the mailling list and did not get any such notice. We talked about stuff for half an hour and then went about our respective businesses. He gave me his email address, and asked to be put on the mailing list.

I live under the flight path --hardly ever hear anything coming or going at night; never anything of commercial size. Occasional prop plane; rare baby jet. I think they have mostly daytime operations up there. But again, who/what company shuts down their routers and the other stuff, just to go back the next day and boot it all up again.

For that matter, the library itself. I can't imagine they would shutdown their routers & everything else just for one day, would they? Maybe they do, but you could probably test it from the parking lot on Sunday when they are normally closed anyway. Although the airport sounds groovier, plus the rest rooms there might be open too.
