FreeBSD 8.0 New Release and Virtualized Networking for All

6:45 pm, Suspenders Restaurant

FreeBSD 8.0 New Release and Virtualized Networking for All

The release of FreeBSD 8.0 brings with it many new features but none has
been more anticipated than the full integration of network stack
virtualization into the system. Virtualized network stacks have the
potential to revolutionize the use of FreeBSD in the same way that Jails
did, by providing a lightweight mechanism through which multiple clients
or customers can use a system`s networking resources without interfering
with each other. My talk will cover not only network virtualization but
also all of the other features and improvements that are present in
FreeBSD 8.0

About the Speaker:

George Neville-Neil works on operating systems and networking for fun
and profit. He is the co-author with Marshall Kirk McKusick of _The
Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System_ as well as
the column Kode Vicious.

Holiday Meeting: Your Tips as Presents

6:45 pm, Suspenders Restaurant
http://www.suspendersbar.com/location.php

December`s meeting will be an opportunity for an array of people to
illustrate their Unix hacks.

In August, Dru Lavigne started a thread on NYCBUG`s talk about "fave BSD
tips/tricks?" that brought out some good discussion. We see this meeting
as a follow-up, and an opportunity to give your hacks "back to the
community" as a holiday gift.

Please submit your one page PDF to admin at (no spam) , with one, two, or even three
simple tips. It might be simple and seemingly stupid, but it could save
a few minutes a day for another developer or sysadmin in the meeting.

It could be a creatively piped set of commands, or a simple script that
you run through periodic to prevent headaches. The field is wide open.

We will schedule a handful of ten minute or so speakers, and let the
crowd take it from there.
