Looks as if we have a need for two, possibly three, separate talks. Can I request a volunteer, or three, to talk about these subjects? With, if possible, and indication as to how much time you need. Regular Expressions. iptables, NAT, and masquerading. The DNS. We have two rooms available, so if one subject only has a few takers these talks could be presented simultaneously. For Prep, folks might care to refer to:- http://rute.2038bug.com/node8.html.gz for a very brief explation of REs. http://rute.2038bug.com/node28.html.gz ditto for networking. There are _many_ papers on the net about both of these subjects. Google is your friend. > On Monday 22 January 2007 22:11, stringer wrote: > > This ties in with firewalls, the talk on which I missed last time and was > > hoping would get repeated in the future, in nice simple terms for idiots > > like me!
