The brochure for the next Hillgang meeting, which will be held on April 8 at
CA's office in Herndon, may be found at: http://www.vm.ibm.com/events/hillgang.pdf Follow the instructions at the bottom of the brochure to register. The agenda for this meeting is: - Breakfast - Brought to you by: IBM - Virtual Networking with z/VM Guest LANs and the z/VM Virtual Switch - Alan Altmark - How to print using CUPS - David Boyes - A quick peak at Linux 2.6 - Neale Ferguson - User stories from the floor SPECIAL NOTICE Please bring a name badge from any past conference (SHARE, WAVV, CMG). The older or more obscure the better. This will save time and effort of creating one before the meeting and should be a good conversation starter. ABSTRACTS Virtual Networking with z/VM Guest LANs and the z/VM Virtual Switch Did you know that you could create virtual LAN segments that connect your z/VM guests together without the need for all those messy point-to-point connections? And did you know you could do that without creating new subnets? Come to this session to hear the latest on how, and when, to use z/VM Guest LANs and the z/VM Virtual Switch. We'll also talk about z/VM's support for IEEE Virtual LANs (VLANs). How to print using CUPS The speaker will discuss how to set up print servers with CUPS; queue management, form definitions, printer descriptions, and more. A Sneak Peak at Linux 2.6 The past few months have seen a flurry of activity as 2.6 was readied for general availability. Well GA has arrived. For those of us who like to live on the bleeding edge, the code is available to download, build and use. I've been examining the status of the kernel and, in particular, the S/390 implementation since the -test3 release. In this presentation I'll present some of my findings and explain what differences you will encounter when moving from the 2.4 kernel. User Stories from the Floor We'll take some time towards the end of the meeting to find out what people are doing with their z/VM and Linux systems. We'll also open the floor to questions and discussion on any relevant topic. PARKING Parking is available in CA parking lot. Please go to the main entrance of the building and register at the front desk.
