Please note our brand new meeting 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 doors.
There is no elevator, so attendees will have to be able to climb a flight of stairs. Apologies to anyone requiring accessibility.
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.
MUUG meetings also take place online (typically using BigBlueButton) for those who can't be there in person. Meeting link will be provided on the home page, prior to meeting start time.
dnsmasq configuration file(s),
to accomplish a more elaborate
DHCP setup than can be configured through
Pi-hole's web-based admin interface.
For example, to set up a "router on a stick" with support for
multiple VLAN's,
each with its own
dhcp-range,
and possibly setting tag values,
to allow differently-tagged dhcp-option settings per range.
Ready for the ultimate geek-out? How about manipulating your disk partitions on a running system? Now how about moving or shrinking your root filesystem on a running system? Now how about doing it all over a remote ssh connection, maybe because your box is in another city or country?
Impossible you say? Not with Linux! And why on earth would you want to do this? How about your hosting company refuses to setup the partitions the way you want them on your new box? Or maybe your /boot partition is old and no longer big enough for all the latest kernel initramfs images?
Trevor Cordes guided us through the insanity of using pivot-root, in a demo-heavy slide-light manner, to make all of your wildest dreams come true.

Bring your favourite gadget! We will have the usual (brief) round-table session, some time for mingling, eating, and drinking, maybe followed by a couple short gadget show-&-tell presentations, and then more time for mingling, eating, and drinking.
This will be an in-person pot-luck snack event! Members are encouraged to bring their own food to sample and share with others. (Finger food works best.) Feel free to bring your own special drink as well - just remember that we don't have a liquor license!
But please, stay home if you are sick.
We will also attempt to simulcast the live round-table and short presentations over BigBlueButton for those that can't attend in person for any reason, whether snow, or sleet, or illness.
Just like last year, any cash donation made to Harvest Manitoba at this event will be matched dollar for dollar by Bradford Vokey (up to a total $500 limit)!
Last year MUUG members donated $128 (an appropriate power of 2) which Brad had to match for a total donation of $256 to Harvest Manitoba. Let's all chip in to make Brad donate more!
1. Canned Fruit 6. Pasta Sauce 2. Canned Soup/Stew 7. Rice 3. Canned Tuna 8. Peanut Butter 4. Canned Vegetables 9. Baby Formula/Food 5. Pasta 10. Instant Oatmeal
