Re: Wednesday, 4/4/2007 Metro East meeting

So I certainly wouldn't want to stop anyone else in the group from
talking about anything, but I do have to point out that half my
problem is even knowing what people find interesting.  Your list helps
quite a bit.  :-)

That's something I can talk about any time.  I'm familiar with Xen,
qemu, User-Mode Linux, VMware, and random other things people probably
wouldn't care about.

I maintain the Fedora OpenVPN package, so I know that well also...

I wouldn't call myself an LDAP expert by any means, but I have several
working OpenLDAP installations under my belt...

I've been playing around with WINE off and on for 12 years now...  :-)

amavisd-new is another one of my packages.  :-)

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/amavisd-new

So is sqlgrey.

I can never remember what we've talked about at the various LUG
meetings.  I thought we'd gone through the mail server stuff recently,
but I guess that was LUCI...

More stuff I could talk about any time...

Have I mentioned that data recovery is a specialty of mine?  ;-)

That one is so easy it almost isn't worth mentioning in a meeting.
Fire up cups, set up a printer, fire up samba with "printing = cups"
in smb.conf, and it all just works...
