Virtualized network stacks have the potential to revolutionize the use of FreeBSD in the same way that Jails did, by providing a lightweight mechanism through which multiple clients or customers can use a system`s networking resources without interfering with each other. My talk will cover not only network virtualization but also all of the other features and improvements that are present in FreeBSD 8.0 About the Speaker: George Neville-Neil works on operating systems and networking for fun and profit. He is the co-author with Marshall Kirk McKusick of _The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System_ as well as the column Kode Vicious. * * * December 02, 2009, Wednesday Holiday Meeting: Your Tips as Presents 6:45 pm, Suspenders Restaurant http://www.suspendersbar.com/location.php December`s meeting will be an opportunity for an array of people to illustrate their Unix hacks. In August, Dru Lavigne started a thread on NYCBUG`s talk about "fave BSD tips/tricks?" that brought out some good discussion. We see this meeting as a follow-up, and an opportunity to give your hacks "back to the community" as a holiday gift. Please submit your one page PDF to admin@, with one, two, or even three simple tips. It might be simple and seemingly stupid, but it could save a few minutes a day for another developer or sysadmin in the meeting. It could be a creatively piped set of commands, or a simple script that you run through periodic to prevent headaches. The field is wide open. We will schedule a handful of ten minute or so speakers, and let the crowd take it from there. _______________________________________________ announce mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nycbug.org/mailman/listinfo/announce </blockquote> Distributed poC TINC: Jay Sulzberger <[email protected]> Corresponding Secretary LXNY LXNY is New York's Free Computing Organization. http://www.lxny.org _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
