I'm starting a discussion concerning installing something
other than Mepis and before I do so I want to get your opinions about this
matter. My fear is that ubuntu/xubuntu will use to much in the way of
resources whereas what what I am going to installhas been recommended.

What do you think?

Hi Darrin and Alan,

Long time lurker, first time poster.  I'm interested in helping out w/ a pgp
key signing party.  I joined the list a few weeks back and haven't had a
chance to attended any of the meetings but I've been playing w/ pgp/gpg
since back in the early cypherpunk days (early 90s).
http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=carlos+macedo+gomes&op=index

Let me know how I can help out.

thanks,
C.G.

I know it's been done before, but I'd like to see a presentation that leaves
me with an understanding of how gpg works, and a demonstration of how to
actually use it. :)

I have Ubuntu on the laptop for now.
After first login and with firefox open, it was using 176 meg of ram.. for a pretty standard gnome ubuntu install.
Oh, and with extra codecs and the nvidia driver.

I want to enforce some good password policies, such as 30 changes, no
dictionary words, can't use the previous 2 passwords...

Can this be done with samba and ldap?
I'm not seeing how to do this.

newer versions of ldap have password policy features (OpenLDAP 2.3,
Fedora Directory Manager)

Mepis is based on kubuntu.  It uses KDE.  It will be much more resource
intensive than xubuntu.  'bout the same as ubuntu.

I am already using cracklib, but it is not checking. I setup the crackcheck
program, and that seems to do the trick. I can no longer use cherry as my
password!

Now I have to work on previous similar passwords.
I made a script to force password changes every 30 days.

I'm glad I didn't refer to this as a "mini-" installfest. I just talked with
Yvonne and she informed me that 16 people have signed up. Wow!

So far, I have myself, Dennis Kibbe, Patrick Callahan, Robert Callahan, and
JT Moree slated to be installers/helpers. If anyone else can come, I'm sure
that we'll have something that you can do to help. It should be fun. Note,
if you can't be there for the entire period, we'll be glad to have you for
whatever period you can attend.

The Card Room at Mesa Regal has been reserved from 9:00-16:00. We're
expecting that most of the people will show up promptly at 9, so it'll
probably be a little crazy at first. I'm planning on getting there as close
to 8:00 as I can to set things up. If others can be there any time between 8
and 9, that should be fine.

Mesa Regal is at 4700 E Main St (Apache Trail) in Mesa, about 1/3 mile east
of Greenfield on the North side of the street:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=4700+e+main+st+mesa+az&ie=UTF8&z=12&ll=33.415681,-111.729927&spn=0.19716,0.338173&om=1&iwloc=addr

If there is someone at the guard station, tell them you're helping with the
Linux meeting in the Card Room. To get to the Card Room, simply drive
straight ahead. The street dead ends at the main building, 2nd stop sign.
Find a place to park. The Card Room is on the West end of the main building,
with doors on the front (south) side.

Thanks to everyone for helping out in any way they can.

I can come now! I am unemployed! Not really..... I start a new job on Tuesday
wiring houses for phone/cable.

This is on SAT?
