Potential Meeting Topics

The following have been discussed as potential meeting topics over the years — the list dates back to the late 1990s, and we keep it around partly as history and partly because a surprising number of these never stop being relevant:

• TCP/IP Network Configuration
• Email Configuration
• Procmail (mail filtering)
• Mail Clients (elm, pine, mutt, etc.)
• Emacs
• Kernel Configuration, Compiling, & such
• Using Kernel Modules
• Using Linux as an X Terminal/Server for an X Terminal
• NFS
• Samba
• Building {Red Hat,Debian} Packages
• Using the Shells
• Databases
• Graphics (imaging, visualization, animation, 3d-modeling)
• Graphics Programs (i.e. GIMP)
• Linux Games
• Security
• ssh
• IP Masquerading/Firewalling (AKA Setting Up a Linux-based Router/Firewall)
• vi (A much better topic than emacs, IMO. ;)
• Emulators and virtualization
• Clustering

If you can think of anything else you’d like to see discussed at a future meeting, either bring it up on the discussion list or email info@luci.org. Also feel free to email your opinions on which topics listed above you’d like to see discussed.
