[Lilux-help] LinuxDays 2005

Hi all, as you may already know, the next LinuxDays installment is drawing closer and closer - 25th and 26th of January, 2005. http://www.linuxdays.lu/ LiLux is organizing two courses for the occasion, one a course for beginners who'll learn there how to use a Linux desktop, the other one about networking, from setting an IP address to configuring VPNs and QoS. Each of these tutorials will last half a day (two parts of 1 1/2 h each, the basic tutorial in the morning of january 25th, the network tutorial in the afternoon of january 25th). Alain Knaff also got asked about a Samba part for the Server Tutorial from the CRP, which sort of implies that he'd be doing double duty with the packet filter part of the networking course. Would anyone volunteer for the Samba part of the server tutorial (1 1/2 hours, incl. practical exercises, probably difficult questions from the audience, incl. questions about how to arm-wrest MS Windows into cooperating, plus LDAP integration)? Or else, would anyone volunteer for the packet filter part of the LiLux network tutorial? The exact duration etc. remains to be seen, chances are we'll discuss this at the next meeting this thursday evening. Greetings, Eric
