[wellylug] April Meeting

Remote X11 would be great at some session - if you can find a client for
Win95/NT?

Also remote access via telnet / Web browser to to the admin tasks required -
what are the catches/gotchas / shortcomings etc.

I want to set up my machine (eventually) as a home
server/gateway/firewall/mail server - of course I will have to replace the
14.4k modem - {grin} - but I want to achieve a point where I isolate the
current NT system and still get mail/browse/upload/download and do all the
other stuff.

Ultimately I want to be able to sort out the NT machine and make a
dual-boot, but not until I get this baby sorted first - One risk at a time.

Should be plenty of meat for discussion on:
- common set up
- basic networking & dial out/DSL configs
- firewalls and how to set one up, routing
- Mail Server, Web server/proxy
- Remote mail from the Internet into the Mail Server

I reckon this covers at least a couple of months - as long as people with
know-how can pitch in because I don't know a hell of a lot - as you can
probably tell.

In all this lot how about a session on upgrading when the new kernel comes
through?

Colin

i'm happy to help... :))
if we run short on ideas (not that it is looking like we will at this
stage!) we can run over some basic security stuff too eh?

we can also play with: nfs - ssh/scp - remote X11 - tcpdump/ethereal, to
name a few things, once we have a networking environment in place.

-jr.
