Prelude is an innovative Hybrid Intrusion Detection system designed to be very modular, distributed, rock solid and fast. The project was founded and is lead by Yoann Vandoorselaere since 1998. Many others have also greatly contributed to Prelude development over the years as well.
Prelude benefits from its ability to find traces of malicious activity from different sensors (Snort, honeyd, Nessus Vulnerability Scanner, Samhain, over 30 types of systems logs, and many others) in order to better verify an attack and in the end to perform automatic correlation between the various events.
Prelude is commited to providing an HyIDS that offers the ability to unify currently available tools into one, powerful, and distributed application.

OpenMOSIX presented by Milton Bailey
Location: ExitCertified
Time: 7 - 9pm
Open MOSIX is a cluster management system that can make an x86 Linux cluster run like a single high performance parallel computer. It is particularly useful to run intensive computing and massive I/O applications.
In a MOSIX cluster there is no need to modify or to link applications with any library, or even to assign processes to different nodes, MOSIX does it automatically - just fork and forget, like in an SMP.

Ok, I goofed this month. Exit Certified rescheduled the SacLUG meeting for the 23rd of June, and I got confused and posted that the meeting was on the 16th.
So, The next official SacLUG meeting will be the 4rd wednesday. This week, we will have a "real" meeting. Then, we will head over to Lyon's. :) Here's more info about SA-Exim

I am hoping Paul Telford can come and fill in some of the blanks I will have. I have SA-Exim running, but I haven't completely figured out all that is going on. SA-Exim incorparates SpamAssassin at relay time, so I hoping that maybe he or someone can provide answers to SpamAssassin, and then we can deduce exactly what SA-Exim is doing and what parameters to tweek with the two integrated.

Mkinitrd and whatever
Location: ExitCertified
Time: 7 - 9pm
I figure we'll talk about mkinitrd, which creates the initial ram disk when the kernel doesn't have enough compiled in to mount the root partition to run init. Most distributions today use the RAMDISK since they don't have to compile everything in the kernel. If you look at grub or lilo configurations, you will often see reference to initrd.
$ man mkinitrd

We'll discuss simple bash scripting. We'll take a few examples from the Rute User's Guide and Unix Power Tools and discuss how they work. Unix Power Tools cover other shells as well, but we'll pull a couple examples out of there too.

I have been hoping to do a talk about Kerberos. Thing is, I know what it is, but I haven't configured it. So, that means having a meaningful information for a talk isn't likely. But, I am hopeful. If you have configured Kerberos, and would like to share information, please contact me.
