Hmmmm....

So far on my list of goodies to talk about is :

Basic LAMP config (Very basic - use your package manager!)
Basic Security options and links - Time for free chat on this as this was somewhat missing in my last chat! I'm not the best PHP programmer out there so comments from the floor gratefully accepted! :-)
Backing up and restoring MySQL with simple examples.
Proxy servers and why you might want to use one in this age of broadband data usage charging (squid being covered in particular in transparent, auth and manually configured modes. I do talk about reverse proxying but won't go into it much unless people want this on the night). "Dansguardian" as an example of how to use Squid to enforce parental filtering on web traffic.

That about covers it so far but I can make adjustments to the talk if anyone wishes for anything in particular....

Brat.

Greetings to CLUGgers,

  The November meeting is tomorrow Tuesday 13 November 2007.

   Brett Davidson will be continuing his exposition on setting up the
Apache Web Server.

   I belive he is going to be talking about how to set it up the PHP
scripting language to interface to databases. ( Brett: You may wish to
expandthat bald sentence )

   The Distro Archive is now more or less functional. If you want a CD
or DVD just ask.

   A light supper will be served consisting of Tea or Instant Coffee
and a Biscuit will be served during the course of the evening.

   Future Meetings:-

   The December Meeting slot is still open for a willing speaker, or
we could enjoy an evening in a suitable public house such as the
Twisted Hop in Poplar Street.

   No Meeting in January. Most folks are away.

   Last but not least:- There has to be a $2.00 minimum entrance fee
to pay for the hire of the hall and supper.
