I think the BBQ would be a great idea! I'd also like to thank Josh for stepping up and getting the room at the Hudson public library! Later, Tim.

Re: Hosting in-person meetings at library

I won't make July or August meetings due to being out of the Worcester area. I like the Hudson Library idea. Also like the idea of possibly it moving around to different locations idea. I can see WLUG meeting at different libraries, coffee houses or brew pubs around central MA. A bit like the 70's Kung Fu TV series. Roaming the area with only our highly tuned Linux skills and spiritual training as a Shaolin Monk...

Re: Hosting in-person meetings at library

by joshua.gage.stone＠gmail.com

Yeah, I wasn't sure how much of a commute driving to Hudson would be. I figured since it was a 20-25 minute drive from WPI that it'd be in the general vicinity for people who're probably commuting in central MA. I figured it'd be worth trying at least once since we've been discussing transitioning back to in-person meetings for some time, and it was something I was able to set up with ease since the library is down the street from my home. - Josh On Thu, 2021-07-15 at 13:38 +0000, THE HAMMER via WLUG wrote: > The Hudson Location involves more driving for me.

Hey Richard, Here are the full directions: 3 Washington St Hudson, MA 01749 Next to the library is the Hudson Fire Department, and in between them is the entrance to a municipal parking lot which is free to use.

Re: Hosting in-person meetings at library

The Hudson Location involves more driving for me. My guess is if we have more meetings there, I would likely attend just a few from time to time. I do not plan to be there tonight. That being said and not having been there, free parking and food nearby sound like definite pluses. I'm anxious to hear how the meeting goes.

Re: VPN Question

by Chuck Anderson

"VPN" is an overloaded term. Here are several different usages: - Remote Access Creates a secure tunnel from a VPN client machine to a remote/corporate network. Depending on the VPN client/server configuration, it may route only traffic destined to the remote network through the VPN while all other traffic goes directly to the Internet. That is called "split-tunnel". The other way routes all traffic through the VPN such that you end up using the remote network's ISP for all of your Internet traffic too. That is called "full-tunnel". This the most common traditional usage of the term "VPN". Standard VPN protocols: IPsec, SSL/TLS, L2TP, etc. Proprietary clients (may use standard protocols, but with proprietary extensions): Cisco Anyconnect Pulse Secure Palo Alto GlobalProtect etc. Standard clients (may interoperate with servers from the above companies, but with reduced functionality) Built-in Microsoft Windows L2TP client Built-in Android VPN client Built-in MacOS VPN client etc. Open Source clients (may interoperate with above companies, but with reduced functionality) openconnect / NetworkManager-openconnect - IPsec, SSL/TLS, etc. openswan/freeswan - IPsec openvpn - this one stands on its own as a non-standard but open protocol/software There are also other VPN plugins for NetworkManager - Site-to-Site Creates a secure site-to-site connection between networks. Often uses the same technologies as the remote access use case above, but instead of running a VPN client on an end-user machine and connecting to a VPN server, it is often configured to run directly on routers and/or firewalls so that an entire site's traffic is securely tunneled to one or more remote sites. - "Anonymizer" Create a secure tunnel to a VPN provider for the purposes of "hiding" your traffic from your own ISP (but not the VPN provider or its ISPs) or appearing to Internet services as if you are located in a different geographical region (e.g. to bypass content restrictions) There are various for-pay and possibly free-of-cost services. As far as I know, they are all proprietary and use their own clients, but I could be wrong. - Routed Provider-Provisioned VPN Creates a private "overlay" network using esoteric protocols such as MPLS and VXLAN, etc. They may be encrypted (using IPsec or some other technology), but are often NOT encrypted because their purpose is different. These are used internally by ISPs, medium/large enterprises, etc. to private a virtual private overlay for segmentation reasons, optionally allowing for overlapping IP address spaces (e.g. mulitple customers of an ISP can be using 192.168.1.0/24 and 10.0.0.0/8 at the same time in separate private network overlays that share the same equipment in the ISPs internal backbone.) Examples: VRF-Lite MPLS-based L3VPN MPLS-based L2VPN/L2 Circuits MPLS-based VPLS EVPN-MPLS EVPN-VXLAN other VXLAN-based overlays etc. On Tue, Jul 13, 2021 at 09:55:27AM -0400, Tim Keller via WLUG wrote: > Ron, > > There are a zillion VPN products on the market.. though generally a > specific VPN client is somewhat wed to the server side.

Re: VPN Question

Ron, There are a zillion VPN products on the market.. though generally a specific VPN client is somewhat wed to the server side. Personally I have a dim view of all things McAffee, but who knows maybe they bought a good VPN from someone and rebranded it. Personally I've used Shrewsoft on windows and frankly the built in windows 10 VPN isn't *horrible*. Tim.

Hey there! I have been away on vacation for the past few weeks, and in the process of changing jobs. Sorry for the lag! We would love you have the WLUG hosted at technocopia! We are working with the building right now to ramp down some of the building-wide COVID restrictions so that we can have public events at Technocopia again soon. Can you give us an estimate on numbers of folks coming to the meetings?

I'm thinking Technocopia is a no go.

by Tim Keller

I've reached out twice and my emails have gone unanswered, I think we should start planning to have WLUG somewhere else. I don't know if WPI is an option or not. I think the last of the people are gone from WPI so we don't have anybody to reserve a room.. If anybody knows someone, etc.. awesome. If people have other options, I'd love to hear them. Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
