Atlanta OS/2 User Group Meeting Tomorrow (3/19)
The Luck o' the Irish is still shining upon us! There will be a
demonstration of some of the most fascinating technological capabilities
that OS/2 has to offer!
HERE ARE THE DETAILS:
Ever wish you could secure your OS/2 system from local access? Not
satisfied with the WPS lockup screen and programs that provide security
for WPS objects? Worried that anyone with access to a command line has
FULL CONTROL over your system?
There is a solution.
Tuesday March 19th, Golden Code Development will preview the most complete
OS/2 security subsystem ever. This software is not yet available,
although it is planned to be made available for select customers by the
end of 1Q02.
With this subsystem it is possible to:
- turn your local OS/2 system into a true multi-user system
- each user is authenticated and has a separate security account and
access control - fully integrated and managed session management handling
logon, logoff, lockup, unlock, shutdown and reboot - for each user you can
implement full discretionary access control (RWCDAXN) over:
- every file, directory and drive in the system
- the launching of any application in the system, including VDMs
- dangerous kernel APIs controlling shutdown, process kill...
- CTRL-ALT-DEL
- protection of STARTUP.CMD
- resources can be managed using groups, like in LAN Server
- trusted application support
- simple program launcher/task switcher that can be used with or without
the WPS - includes an integrated screen saver

Roger Borrello

Philadelphia OS/2 Mtg: Wed, Mar 20th
The Philadelphia OS/2 User Group invites all interested computer users to
attend the March monthly meeting:
. WEDNESDAY, March 20, 2002 7:00 - 10:00 PM
. The Episcopal Academy, 376 N. Latches Lane, Merion, PA
. *** MARCH 20th MEETING AGENDA ***
. -- LIVE IBM RS/6000 WORKSTATION DEMO --
PLEASE NOTE: The March meeting will be on March 20th this year, the 3rd
Wednesday of the month, in order to avoid conflict with religious
observances during our usual 4th week meeting date.
The feature presentation at the March 20 meeting will be a live demo by
Vadim Kavalerov, one of our PhillyOS2 leading gurus, of an IBM RS/6000
workstation (w/PowerPC) running the AIX 4.3.3 OS.
The introduction of IBM's pSeries Regatta systems in November 2001 with
the Power4 microprocessor, PowerPC architecture was confirmed the
world-leading high-performance computing platform.
The PowerPC and Power series line of the microprocessors have a
decade-long history, and a large number of products shipped to enterprise
customers. For example, the 43P line of RS/6000
workstations shipped over 1 million units since its introduction in 1996.
Incidentally, this is precisely the kind of the hardware which was
originally destined to run OS/2 5.0, cancelled weeks before its planned
introduction early in 1996.
As such systems are replaced in various enterprise environments, they
often find 2nd or even 3rd owners due to their unprecedented longevity. By
PC standards, these machines are quite fast at
200-300 MHz CPU speed. Such systems can be purchased at used PC prices
from a large number of dealers including IBM. The standard OS on RS/6000
is AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive), an IBM version of Unix.
The user interface of the RS/6000 is Common Desktop Environment (CDE), a
standard on many other Unix systems. Generally, AIX is Unix, but there are
a couple of significant differences that will be explained. IBM also added
a system management interface (SMIT) that makes it easy even to someone
unfamiliar with Unix to perform basic system management functions.
If you'd like to learn Unix, AIX might be just for you. There are hundreds
of in-depth RedBooks available from http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/. You may also
wish to browse the following related web sites, and bring your questions
to the meeting:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/pseries/hardware/largescale/sp.html
http://www.austin.ibm.com/software/OS/aix43.html
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/aix/products/aixos/
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/aix/library/
http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/aixpdslib.html
Other agenda items include U/G business items, OS/2 news, new releases,
Q&A session and raffles. The usual free refreshments will also be
available.
Mark the date and time: Wednesday, March 20th, at 7:00pm.
OS/2 meetings are open and free for OS/2 users, their guests
and others interested in learning about OS/2 and associated
technologies. We have a very full agenda, so also please try
to be on time promptly by 7:00pm.
Further information, directions to Episcopal Academy, and other useful
information about the OS/2 U/G activities may be found on our web site at http://www.phillyos2.org, or contact U/G Leader Larry Lavins: llavins@worldnet.att.net, or phone (215) 878-9609. - -
SCOUG meeting March 16: Addendum
Contact: Tony Butka tony@scoug.com
The next meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) will
be this Saturday, March 16, 2002 at 9:15 AM PST, at Regal Lanes in Orange,
1485 N. Tustin Ave.
Main presentation addendum
Courtesy of Networking SIG leader Steve Schiffman, you can bring your
computer (as long as it has an Ethernet adapter) and download Virginia
Hetrick's material for her "Coding Tidy HTML" presentation.
Programming SIG addendum
Harry Motin will explain the Open Watcom Project (open source C/C++ and
Fortran compiler products). He'll discuss just what the Open Watcom
Project is, how you can obtain the Watcom files, what you do to download
them, installing (with the focus on the C/C++ products, not the Fortran
product), and getting started. Harry will wind up by telling about some
of his personal projects for Watcom C/C++.

how to get to Regal Lanes.

SCOUG meeting Mar. 16
Contact: Tony Butka tony@scoug.com
The next meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) will
be next Saturday, March 16, 2002 at 9:15 AM PST, at Regal Lanes in Orange,
1485 N. Tustin Ave.
Coding Tidy HTML
Virginia Hetrick will introduce us to building Web pages including some
new tools she's built using REXX and new WebSphere functions from IBM.
She'll show us some really bad web pages and give us pointers to
appropriate use of some tricks of the trade. For those who are interested
in JavaScript or Java, she'll bring along some code samples of interest.
Virginia will have things of value for each and every one of us.
It's Also Election Time
Last call for candidates! For the business portion of the meeting, we'll
have a quick election. The current board is essentially running as a
slate of (at least as of this moment) unopposed candidates.
Programming SIG
Harry Motin will give us a taste of what you need to do to set up Watcom.
And the Usual Fun & Games
Let's see.... we're talking about Q&A for any computer-type problems you
might be having; a raffle; free coffee & donuts. Be there!
OS/2 Help Desk and Networking SIG, April 7th, 2002, 2 PM PDT, Chapman
University in Orange: (note Daylight Savings Time is in effect)
Should you be in need of technical assistance, take your problem - and
your system - to the in-person OS/2 Help Desk that's held once a month at
Chapman University. SCOUG volunteers will help you work it all out.
While you're at the in-person Help Desk, find out what the Networking SIG
is doing. If networking isn't part of your current strategy, it will be
eventually. The SIG meets at the same time and place, and pursues issues
related to network configurations and problem solutions.
How to get to Regal Lanes:
From the 55 freeway, exit Katella Ave. heading west. Turn right (north)
at the first major intersection onto Tustin Ave. At the next signal
you'll find Regal Lanes on your right. It's across from the Toyota of
Orange dealership.
There's lots of parking on the south side of the building. Enter from the
east entrance of the building (farthest from Tustin Ave.), not the main
(front) entrance to the facility. Take the stairs to the 2nd floor;
meeting rooms (and restrooms) will be on your left.
Handicapped access is via an elevator by the front door.
OR: Go to http://www.scoug.com/directions.html; there is a map to Regal
Lanes, plus a more detailed map & driving directions from Yahoo!
How to get to Chapman University:
There are two ways to get directions:
1) Go to http://www.scoug.com/warpexpowest/sitemap.html
2) Go to http://www.mapquest.com/ and enter the address 400 N. Center
Street, Orange, CA.
You can park in any of the University lots for free on Sundays, but if you
part on the street, watch the signs carefully or else risk getting a
parking ticket.
Come to Hashinger Hall Science Building, room 203. It's on the second
floor and there's an elevator for you to bring up your equipment.
Come and join us!
