          There's a 3.0 presentation pencilled in for November, but that is 
going to talk about active directory integration, etc.  Setting up Samba for an 
NT domain and/or workgroup for simple file sharing and printing is different 
and we can do that at the October meeting, or a UAS LUG meeting if it gets off 
the ground.

         Thanks for pumping my ego.

         Best for the Mac users group?  When people say OS X tweaks, I find 
that a lot of the time they're talking about Aqua, not Darwin.

         I've got a handout on this as well.

         `man iwconfig` - iwconfig is cool, and required to set up shared keys, 
etc.

          Several members do this from work now, I think with ssh.  Anyone 
using a different vpn solution?  I do very basic ssh stuff, essentially just 
secure telnet.  Other people (Justin) know a lot more about ssh and it's uses.

          Hmm, dunno.  That's mostly a programming/database issue to me.  How 
to split up your work and then re-integrate it.  The network stuff should be a 
lot less complex.

           Show up in October for Justin's OpenMosix demo.

          That's a UAS club thing.  You already found a good link (the guy does 
like RH though, doesn't he? There are other reasons to use *BSD than Linux 
Compatibility Mode.)

Cheers,

James
