Meeting 2001.4 : Hive Bar, UEA Norwich

Plan for the meeting

Roughly, as follows: The meeting is scheduled for 2pm-6pm. It is in the larger Hive bar and we're hoping for it to be as well attended as last time. There will be presentations and discussions of security topics, wireless networking and a practical demo of printer configuration.

How to get there

People at the meeting

Most ALUG members, hopefully. The kit list below is nowhere near complete. Please email me to add yourself to the list.

If you will also be coming to this meeting, please try to say so on the mailing list, so we can be prepared for the numbers!

Equipment

Equipment is brought at your own risk. We strongly suggest that you tag or label your kit. No known thefts have occurred at our meetings, but there is ample scope for going home with the wrong cables, etc. Be sure to bring all appropriate power cables etc. An extra extension lead will also be a good idea.

So far, for this meeting, we know of:

Earl Brannigan
Security demonstration: bringing nessus, nmap and the like and showing how to use them. I could also demonstrate a buffer overflow and that sort of thing...if anyone's interested...

Some equipment has been sent to us on loan, including a set-top box.
