Philadelphia OS/2 UG Mtg: Wed, Oct 24th
The Philadelphia OS/2 User Group invites all interested computer users to
attend the October monthly meeting:
. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2001 7:00 - 10:00 PM
. The Episcopal Academy, 376 N. Latches Lane, Merion, PA
. *** OCTOBER 24th FEATURE PRESENTATION ***
. -- eComStation Installation & Demonstration II --
At last month's meeting, we did a successful live installation of the GA
release of Serenity Systems' eComStation and demonstrated the refinements
that Serenity Systems has brought to the basic Warp 4 installation
routine. This month we will follow up on that installation of eCS by
reviewing some of the features included with eCom Station (eCS for short).
We will have a system with eCS already installed to demonstrate these
features.
One of the interesting developments of eCS, as well as the IBM release of
Merlin Convenience Pack (MCP), is the use of Logical Volume Manager in
place of FDISK for hard drive management. With help from Vadim Kavalerov
and other members who are experienced in using LVM, we will work with it
and compare it with FDISK to better understand this new approach to
setting up hard drives.
We will then look at some current applications and utilities, including
several very recent releases, which ship with eCS. As time permits, we'll
try to install dial-up access using Injoy and setting up the Injoy
firewall, as well as WarpIn, ODIN, Netscape Communicator 4.6.1, EDASSOC,
etc.
The October meeting will emphasize member discussions of many of the
technical issues involved with eCS and MCP, especially LVM, which should
elicit many questions. Any folks who have installed and used the new eCS
GA and MCP releases are urged to come to the October meeting to share your
experience and knowhow.
At the September meeting, REXX guru Barry Mann briefly discussed a REXX
program he had written entitled "Code Red Log File Sniffer" for an Apache
server log file. This program maintains maintains a log of all attempted
attacks against a web server. Barry will follow up on his September
presentation with additional details which should also give rise to some
good group discussions.
Other agenda items, as time permits, include U/G business items, OS/2
news, Q&A session, new releases and raffles. The usual free refreshments
will also be available.
Mark the date and time: Wednesday, October 24th, 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.

SCOUG meeting Oct. 20: 8th Anniversary Celebration & OS/2 Install-Fest
Contact: Tony Butka tony@scoug.com
The next meeting of the Southern California OS/2 User Group (SCOUG) will
be this Saturday, October 20, 2001 at 9:00 AM PDT, at Regal Lanes in
Orange, 1485 N. Tustin Ave.
SCOUG's 8th Anniversary Celebration and Installing Iterations of OS/2:
eComStation, Warp 4, Convenience Pak, and Warp Server for e-Business
(rescheduled from September)
If this sounds familiar, it's because this was what we'd intended for last
month.
What could be more fun than watching OS/2 install? Why, watching it
install over and over again, of course!
Think we're joking? Well, think again. SCOUG members always seem to find
the installation of OS/2 fascinating, so we're going to do it up royally.
We'll have several basically identical clean systems ready and waiting
Saturday morning. The plan is to install a different OS/2 flavor on each
machine, and our targets are eCS, Warp 4, Convenience Pak, and Warp Server
for e-Business. We may even try installing eCS over an existing OS/2
desktop just to see what happens.
Cake? Did we mention cake? You already know to expect free donuts, but
this is extra special. It's our anniversary celebration after all, so of
course there will be fattening treats for the occasion. And And gifts?
You bet! A super celebration raffle with no junk. You'd You'd have to
say we're packing a lot into this one meeting!
Help Desk chats now happen on Wednesday evenings at 7 PM PDT. If you've
got a problem with hardware or software, join the chat and ask for help.
