MHVLUG is proud to announce our August 2010 meeting:
.... Samba

Samba is the standard Windows interoperability suite of programs for Linux  
and Unix.

Samba is Free Software [1] licensed under the
GNU General Public License
, the Samba project is a member of the
Software Freedom Conservancy
.

Since 1992 [2], Samba has provided secure, stable and fast file and print  
services for all clients using the SMB/CIFS protocol, such as all versions of  
DOS and Windows, OS/2, Linux and many others.

Samba is an important component to seamlessly integrate Linux/Unix Servers  
and Desktops into Active Directory environments using the winbind daemon.

.... Lightning Talks

 * Mobile Atlas Creator [3] - Sean
 * Hudson Valley STEM [4] - Sean

Before the main talk we will do a series of lightning talks (up to 3), each  
10 minutes or less, on something Open Source related. It could be a fun new  
program, a book, a blog post, or really anything you think the wider MHVLUG  
community would find some interest in. People that have posted their talk  
subject to the website in advance have priority. Time permitting, we'll also  
take impromptu lightning talks from the floor.

If you are planning on using the projector for your lightning talk, please  
arrive at 5:30 to ensure we can work out any kinks with the projector prior  
to the meeting.

The meeting will take place at
Mid Hudson Library System Auditorium
on Wednesday, August 4th at 6 pm.

All meetings are *free* and open to the public, and everyone from all levels  
of expertise and interest in Linux and Open Source Software are encouraged to  
attend (and bring a friend or two)! After each meeting ends everyone is  
welcome to join in on an informal dinner gathering at the Palace Diner [5] on  
Washington St. This is a great opportunity to interact with members of the  
local Linux community, and a forum where questions and comments are strongly  
welcomed.
