Originally given in 2007 at the Southern California Linux Expo, this updated version of the talk will also diverge into the direction of premature optimization and overuse of "the big gun" for simple problems. About the speaker: Jan Schaumann currently works as a Senior Network Security Engineer at Etsy. Prior to that, Jan was a Senior System Administrator, Systems Architect and finally Principal Paranoid at Yahoo! Inc. He is also an adjunct professor of Computer Science at Stevens Institute of Technology, where he teaches classes in System Administration and UNIX Programming. With this unique background in both a small scale academic as well as a massive industry-leader corporate enterprise environment, Jan has over 10 years of extensive real-world experience in the practice and teaching of System Administration. He has given presentations on various topics at both national and international venues. At the moment, Jan is working on a course book on System Administration, to be published by Wiley & Sons in 2013. He lives with his wife and two daughters in New York City, where you may find him riding a large skateboard. You may feel free to buy him a beer anytime. * * * 2012-06-06 @ 18:30 - Location: suspenders Networking by Example with the Packet Construction Set, George Neville-Neil * * * You can catch the New York City *BSD User Group at: * our mailing lists at http://lists.nycbug.org * #nycbug on irc.efnet.org * the web site at http://www.nycbug.org * meetings, on the first Wednesday of each month _______________________________________________ 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] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
