We are considering offering another set of LPI exams on Saturday May 28, 2005. There will be two seatings, one at 11:00, the other at 1:00. The location is yet to be determined, but we definately have a location in the west end. A finalized location will be posted within the next two weeks.

Same old same old.. Well, not quite. I was looking at a project called openNMS and was wondering if anyone had looked at it yet, and if so, wanted to talk about it.

If not, I thought we could try it out.

If anyone wants to have a look, the project is located at www.opennms.org

It looks to be a pretty full featured monitoring system, and I can’t afford a copy of HP OpenView :) (supposedly neither can my employer). I’m planning on giving it a shot on my own network, so I may have some info for the meeting.

That last item should have read as email fixed. This doesn’t mean mailing lists, but that will be fixed shortly as well. You can now receive password reminders.

Well, I guess this would indicate why there have been few comments lately, etc. It appears that there was a typo in the email processing routine of the software. I just tried sending an email to myself from the site after Kelly told me that he couldn’t get a password reset email. I suspect this would have affected new signup as well. Not amusing. All appears to be fixed now, so anyone who needs a password reminder/reset should now be able to get one. Sorry for the inconvenience.

It’s that time of the month again. Come out and be social. Who knows, maybe the answers you are looking for are right under your nose.
