Paris LUG

I’m starting a Linux User Group for people in the Paris area. Get all of the details at The Paris Area LUG Homepage.

Be sure to attend our first meeting on Saturday, October 9 from 1:00pm to 5:00pm at the Paris ISD Administration Building, 1920 Clarksville St. Paris, TX. Please e-mail me if you have any more questions or if you’re interested in attending.

Home network

I got my old computer up and running last weekend. I spent my evenings getting it networked to my new computer and configuring IP Masquerading. I’m going to set up DNS and proxy caching this weekend to try and speed up my Internet access.

I also got my free copy of Solaris 7 in the mail today. Actually it cost me about $16 with shipping. Head over to Sun’s Developer Connection web site to get your copy. I can’t wait to check it out. It looks like I’ll have to find another computer to play with…

Rest in pieces

I decided to dedicate this weekend to putting my old Pentium 200 back together, and getting my network going again. Ever since I built my Pentium III 450, my other computer has just been sitting under the desk in pieces. I’ll need both of these machines when Diablo II finally comes out.

I’ll update the page again when everything is back to normal, and add some information on Linux networking and Samba.
