Calling for a Bof to see if it is feasible to hold a security conf in Bombay.
by gaurav chaturvedi 30 Dec '06

30 Dec '06

Hey Guys, Delhi has freedel,Bangalore has foss.in. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to hold a conf here in Bombay, and as far as the topic of this conf goes its open to debate. I say we hold a security conf. Why? because India doesn't have such a conf (AFAIK) and its a topic of interest to me. It doesn't have to be anything big,just a few guys doing some cool stuff. Please comment.

29 Dec '06

Hi, I have just created the template page for CDs4grabs for ILUG-BOM: http://db.glug-bom.org/wiki/index.php/CDs4grabs I feel the CDs available and CDs wanted can be removed as the above will cater to it. This is similar to the CDs4grabs project at chennailug.org: http://chennailug.org/wiki/?title=CDs_for_Grab Any thoughts/suggestions welcome, SK -- Shakthi Kannan http://www.shakthimaan.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Not the actual procedure on how to go about connecting to Pacenet with the decrypted password. It could be considered illegal if you post information that undermines the security or violates the policy of the company. Hence, I suggest only the decryption process be described on wiki.

All the stuff that I've done over the last year needs to be added but I think this could still be useful. I completely agree with Roshan that a user page serves as much better reference than a mailing list. Here is the link http://mndar.linux-fan.com . I think there have been references to it on this mailing list with regards to the pacenet connection. Let me know whether the HOW-TOs seem Beginner Friendly.

A Linux Brochure.
by Rony 28 Dec '06

28 Dec '06

Hello All, I have been struggling to get my sample text on the wiki but still learning. The page is more than 8 Kb so rejected by the mailing list admin. I have finally managed to put it on to google home pages and here is the link below: http://ronybill.googlepages.com/home Please go through it and give feedback. The brochure is meant to introduce people with no knowledge of linux, to linux. So it doesn't have to be detailed but give an overall picture about it. Regards, Rony.
