GNU/Linux Security is a hands on course investigating different security aspects of security in a GNU/Linux environment. Students will also participate in a group project in order to gain deeper understanding of a security topic of the group's choice. GNU/Linux Security Introduction to GNU/Linux familiarizes students with the GNU/Linux desktop, a variety of Free Software applications and introductory knowledge of how GNU/Linux works. Introduction to GNU/Linux Volunteers Needed: Compare Languages and AlgorithmsAt the 07Feb2008 Devel Meeting we had a discussion of programming languages and well known or interesting algorithms. Here are the results of the discussion displayed in kdissert, a mind mapping tool written for KDE. (The original kdissert file along with generated text and OpenOffice.org Writer files are attached to this article.) We discussed programming languages' strengths, weakness and uses. Then talked about different algorithms and common language features, like flow control. We added boxes to the mind map as we went. The goal was to arrive at a short list of languages and algorithms that we could ask people to code solutions for. At a future meeting we can compare the code of each algorithm as implemented in each language. The "Guidelines" are some criteria for the volunteers who will write the sample code. The languages and algorithms in blue and marked with an asterisk (*) were selected as targets for coding. Now we need volunteers to do the code! This is how it will work:

What AdOn Offers: What AdOn Does NOT Offer: Your Qualifications: Virtualization Presentations LinksAustin Godber has provided two presentations on virtualization for us this month. (Thanks, Austin!) He has posted the presentations on line for us. What follows are the links to the presentation with the synopsis written for the original meeting announcements. Overview of Linux Virtualization Virtualization has recently become very popular in commodity computing. As a Linux User there are many options ranging from free to commercial software. Some of these projects have even been incorporated either in whole or in part directly into the official Linux kernel. An overview of virtualization in general and virtualization options for Linux users will be presented. We will discuss the benefits of virtualization and make a case for the value of virtualization to developers. In addition, a crash course on using KVM, which is readily available in recent Linux distributions will be given. http://uberhip.com/godber/plug/Linux-Virtualization/index.html Xen Virtualization on Linux A brief background on Xen based virtualization and primer on usage on Ubuntu 7.04 will be presented.
