MUUG Meeting, Tuesday, June 2, 7:30pm (NEW LOCATION) -- Audio Files for the Audiophile
by MUUG meeting announcements 26 May '26

26 May '26

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting IN PERSON, on Tuesday, June 2nd, at 7:30pm. Yes, that's the FIRST Tuesday of the month... Local certificates and CA’s There are many tools and services to get you up and running with a web server certificate issued by a trusted CA (Certificate Authority). The internet is filled with many good tutorials on how to do just that. So why yet another? The vast majority of those don’t cover the case where you have an internal website (not accessible by the internet, and maybe without internet access itself) and you still need to have a proper (not self-issued) certificate so your internal web clients (browsers) know this is a trusted website. Kevin McGregor will describe the concepts and process needed to make this happen. And to speed it up, no demos! RTFM: /bin Diving Time permitting, Wyatt Zacharias will then try to figure out what a random /bin command does — live in front of the group. Fun group discussions and insights usually ensue. Come for the fun of it, and stay for the group participation and shared learning opportunity! Where to find the Meeting: **NOTE NEW LOCATION** Winnipeg Senior Citizens Radio Club, 598 St. Mary's Road, 2nd Floor WSC is located at 598 St. Mary's Road, 2nd Floor, a block South from the St. Mary's / St. Anne's fork, on the West side beside the Miller's Meats. It's in the old fire hall, so you really can't miss it! Look for the red door. There are a limited number of parking spaces for WSC around the building. If you arrive early you'll probably snag one. If not, there is parking available on the nearby streets, such as Mager Dr, or the streets off of St. Mary's such as Blenheim or Clonard Ave. Be careful not to park in nearby private parking lots unless otherwise indicated. There is no elevator, so attendees will have to be able to climb a flight of stairs. Apologies to anyone requiring accessibility. *Please Remove Your Footwear!* To keep the carpets clean and dry, please remove your outdoor footwear at the top of the stairs. Feel free to bring a pair of indoor shoes, sandals, or Crocs to use indoors. *Entry Log Book:* To support WSC operations, we ask all guests to sign the log book provided by WSC as you enter the meeting space. Online Meeting Option: For those unable or preferring not to attend in person, the meeting will also be available online, using BBB as usual. Stay tuned to our muug.ca home page for the official URL, which will be made available about a half hour before the meeting starts. (Reload the page if you don't see the link, or if there are issues with connecting.) The group now holds its meetings at 7:30pm on the *first* Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend.

05 May '26

A reminder that the MUUG meeting is happening, both in-person and online, this evening... The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting in person and online, on Tuesday, May 5th, at 7:30pm. XigmaNAS Ken Wong will do a guided tour on modernizing XigmaNAS for OpenZFS. XigmaNAS is one of the longest-running NAS solutions, which has its roots traced back to FreeNAS. Ken will talk about how it is built, how it operates, highlighting modernization efforts, what "dragons" are encountered along the way, and areas for future work. We are in for an exclusive and early treat, as BSDCan (the definitive BSD event in North America), has asked Ken to do this presentation at BSDCan later this June in Ottawa. Save money on flight/hotel/tickets and join us!
