NC*SA General Meeting
6:00 pm, Monday, June 10th, 2002
Dreyfus Laboratory
Research Triangle Institute
Research Triangle Park, NC
(directions below)

Topic: Compare/Contrast Solaris Jumpstart/JASS and Red Hat
Kickstart

Speaker: Stephen Schaefer

==============================

Abstract:

In which I extol the advantages of network installation and
describe the common processes involved; also the specifics of network
installation using Solaris Jumpstart/JASS are described; and finally the
specifics of Red Hat Kickstart network installs.

Bio:

In 1974 my assistant scoutmaster let me loose on an IBM 1401
which had been retired to function as an RJE terminal, but which could
still be booted as a FORTRAN II compiler (punched card input, of
course). I've done what I could to hange around data beasties since
then, and have been doing systems admin as at least part of that since
1982 (unless you count the stacks of JCL I wrote to, um, "accommodate",
the 2 minute CPU time limit on undergrad batch submissions at UNC).
More recently, I've been working with Stan Briggs since 1994, first
doing contracting sytem and network admin, then when we were acquired
by eMIS, full time for that company. eMIS is headed back to Germany,
so if you've got computer work, I'm interested!

==============================

Our meetings are free and open to anyone with an interest in the topic
of the evening and/or system administration. We will be providing
food and drink for the evening. If you have any questions please
