<p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Here is a brief synopsis of Saturdays meeting for those unable to attend.<br></p><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Attended by;<br>Kevin, Dan, Dan, Mike,
Paul, Rich, Blake, Colin and Mark.</p><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">This was our third
meeting at the Triangles Community center in Dover and saw two
members come, Blake and Rich, and Mark a long time mailing list and
IRC member de-lurk and attend. We have had new members or people
de-lurk at each meeting so far and I hope continues.</p><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Dan (MonsueirLeDan on
IRC) gave a good talk about being a 'Digital Nomad' and highlighted
some good web services to use to store all your information online
and reminder sites to keep you organised. To be a 'Digital Nomad'
you need wireless access and he explained about WEP and WPA security
and how to crack WEP security in theory. Unfortunately 'BackTrac'
<a href="http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack.html">http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack.html</a>
was playing up on the eeePC and Dan was not able to complete his task
of breaking into Mike's Access Point. Will we ever know Mike's WEP
key?</p><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Colin then gave a talk
and overview of Online Backup Solutions, which greatly helps anyone
to be a 'Digital Nomad'. There are lots of Windows centric backup
solutions and only a few Linux ones, The best one in his opinion was
from <a href="http://www.spideroak.com/">www.spideroak.com</a>
because of it's very simple GUI and auto synchronisation of backed up
files. It is also a simple .DEB install. It offers 2GB of free
storage then reasonable costs for more.</p><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">The presentation files
will be available on the KLUG website at some point soon.</p><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I know people took some
good notes during the meeting so please add any points I missed and
the URL's of the web services mentioned.</p><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I wrote this partly in
the third person, because I will post the synopsis on the website
once people have added comments to it.</p><br><p class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Thanks<br>Colin<br></p>
