Reminder: LPI Exam Saturday
Just a reminder that the exam will be happening Saturday Dec 11, 2004. Seatings at 11:00 and 13:00.
Power bumps, hacking attacks, and Bell woes
May you live in interesting times is certainly the thing for this week.
Bell cut off my provider last week for a day and a half, today there is a network flood that causes my DSL modem to lock up, and I walked on the power bar where I had plugged in while I was moving the server into a rack. I’m surprised anything survived.
At least this constituted some activity on the site. If anyone was actually trying to view/post/comment, my apologies.
Registration closing
We have to have the exams shipped in from Toronto, so anyone who has not signed up by Monday night may not have an exam to write on. I will send a confirmation email to everyone who is scheduled to write.
November Meeting, Thursday Nov 20, 2004
Meeting this Thursday, Nov 20, 2004. See calendar for details.
Last meeting had some relatively lively discussion, hopefully we can keep the trend going. Given that we will be punting the LPI exams out, this could help map out training (if people want it), and we could discuss GNU cfengine.
LPI Exam Update (delaying for a few weeks)
Just to clear up any confusion, you need to send an email to lpi_exams@ovsage.org with the following information:
- Name (First Last)
- Valid Email Address
- LPI Identification Number (you need this to take the exam)
- Which exams will you be taking? (101R 101D 102 201 or 202)
Exam 101 can be done with a RedHat Package Manager (101R) or Debian Package Manager (101D) specialty - Which Seating (11:00 or 13:00, or both) in order to write the exam
Looks like we will have a little more time to get ready. We didn’t get the request for the exams in early enough, so we will be punting out 3 weeks and making it the 11th of December instead.
