I'll be there tonight! I've got some thoughts on TrueNAS since I'm running the older Core version at $WORK with an active/passive setup. It's... ok, no netapp. But you get what you pay for.

Re: [Wlug] REMINDER: Upcoming WLUG meeting

by Frank Sweetser

Hey all, if no one has any objections, I'll be doing a presentation on a package I've been working with for a few weeks now called puppet. Puppet is a framework designed to automate system administration tasks (package installation, configuration, user management, etc). It's pretty powerful, and particularly useful if you have multiple machines that need to be managed. http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ Hope to see you all there! -- Frank Sweetser fs at wpi.edu | For every problem, there is a solution that WPI Senior Network Engineer | is simple, elegant, and wrong. - HL Mencken GPG fingerprint = 6174 1257 129E 0D21 D8D4 E8A3 8E39 29E3 E2E8 8CEC

Re: [Wlug] Next WLUG Meeting: Keysigning Party 9/11/2013

by Chuck Anderson

Those of you who created your keys and didn't upload them yet, you should upload them to: http://biglumber.com/x/web?keyring=4480 and/or preferrably send them to a public keyserver: gpg --keyserver=subkeys.pgp.net --send-keys <your-key-id(s)> so that we can sign them! After you have received signatures from people encrypted to your email address(es), import all of them, one at a time to your keyring: gpg --import <decrypted-email-with-your-signed-key> (In Mutt this is really easy--just view the attachement and hit "| gpg --import" to pipe the attachment through gpg) and then send them back to a public keyserver again so other people can see/use those signatures by refreshing their own keyring: gpg --keyserver=subkeys.pgp.net --send-keys <your-key-id(s)> gpg --keyserver=subkeys.pgp.net --refresh-keys On Wed, Sep 11, 2013 at 04:55:15PM -0400, Eric Martin wrote: > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA256 > > Hi All, I forgot to mention that you should print out your fingerprint > and bring it to the meeting, to make sure that the one I have on file > for you is the correct one.

Re: Last meeting mention of connecting to DISPLAY :0

by Chris (wolcen) Thompson

Good catch, John - I should have mentioned that! (I do keep my monitors off as well). Yes - given I'm on i3, I do a `DISPLAY=:0 i3lock &` and a simple Ctrl+C is good for killing the x0vncserver started in the SSH shell. Thanks for pointing out those very important caveats.
