[juneau-lug] Forensics Conference

As I noted about a month and a half ago, I was heading down to Missouri 
for a forensics conference.  It was fun, challenging and exhausting.   
Also had a chance to play around with VMWare.  Nice product and handled 
anything we could throw at it.
If there was a drawback it was that SANS assumed too much about the 
background of most of the participants, many of whom had limited 
experience in Linux.  It was interesting to see how I was not alone in 
the world.  Wireless connectivity was not a requirement for our systems, 
but it was a common problem with many who were using Intel platforms.  I 
attempted to upgrade my Fedora system to Core 4 2.16 to see if it 
resolved the wireless problem, but only succeeded in short-circuiting 
VMWare.   One of my best students is currently beating his head against 
the wall with a Dell laptop and Fedora Core 5.  Makes it tough to 
monitor wireless network traffic with a wireless connection.

Other than that, came up with all sorts of fun toys from Helix and other 
sources.  If I make it to a meeting, my show you some of the stuff.  In 
the meantime, I am hoping to put something together as a formal 
presentation so it can wet your appetite.
