July 1, Wednesday Staying in sync with the Precision Time Protocol, Steven Kreuzer 18:45, Stone Creek Bar & Lounge: 140 E 27th St Abstract Getting clocks to agree on the time is tricky. Getting them to agree on the time better than 100 nanoseconds is even trickier. In this talk I will provide an introduction to the basic principles of the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and how it can be used to precisely synchronize computers over a LAN. Speaker Bio Battling to keep unreliable clocks in sync, Steven is a system administrator who has gained an appreciation for the art and science of timekeeping. He lives in Queens, NY with his wife and dog.

We do the following. We have a message board where common users can post their messages primarily clarifications/how to's which will remain with co-users to solve. Once Solved we go one level up and provide support to the user and create how to's, technical documentations to solve the problem. Primarily the site is below. http://login.mycontributions.org/ Once this is done we publish it in our resource portal which can be accessed by any user. We work on a paid mode in this case, where in the user/interested companies take back our support to further enhance their support. Please register for a user we will enable your account after a small interaction. Primarily the site below. We will add resources you need with a little pay/donation. http://resources.mycontributions.org/ Hoping for a good response.

It will have cost me a decent amount of (billable) time, and money, by the time I'm done with it. Turns out domains, logo, webdesign, etcetc. aren't free. Bummer! :) Release is 31.07., I'm doing a release party here in Tallinn. If anyone happens to be in the neighborhood... you will find a way to contact me, I'm sure. > Johannes hopes to make this a way to popularize FreeBSD more. Given that I run FreeBSD on my laptop, servers, soon a Raspberry Pi 2 or three, get paid for working with it etcetc, starting on FreeBSD is the low-hanging fruit. In one of the future iterations I'll hack up CentOS support. That should be trivial; after all, I did the CentOS ports for our Linux emulation... ;-) > I thought NYCBUG would be a good place for people to poke at it > and eventually use it or condemn it, I'm still waiting to see it > before I take a stance. I'll publish the code once we (speaking as ruby@ team member) have brought in GitLab, and as soon as `fractal cells || hosting singularity' can fully self-deploy. That is, the after the release party -- August 01, 2015. Fun fact: It's the Swiss federal holiday.. ;-) Best, - -xmj -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJVnsIvAAoJEPyeKTcbGw0LJAQH/jtH1oOk0AHZuz99oVb88fgm Bpq//QVzOYTftclDz+0kTJEHkI10xLH3gFjJEoaeJ3JAL0FpjORpeXVdpANoev6w ZQuOfIbCQ2OYyJvRhxLn46hB3+B4Kn2fMK9XxsuPWlNCMWP+myoVgxppeL2ZUY5U VxhAv2bGheIWBdi+1/3rV4nSbilnu8mdAYR06OHtYmTUSDES/ZJnY+1r6yf4HGLZ +DId//DZTm5INPY81UqVRMMrkLo2ho/qGdoEYb6JvhE5bSZaMxuHJn7P+I8WAlJ/ 7+YOCXDP8EbMrlRzxcYdxZjVbLF4EjSaF55WlK37rix7WPl6CgxbZmma88kuFZs= =97Nw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From briancoca+nycbug at gmail.com Thu Jul 16 07:29:32 2015 From: briancoca+nycbug at gmail.com (Brian Coca) Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2015 07:29:32 -0400 Subject: [talk] anonymizing kit Message-ID: Since many on this list are very conscious about security and anonymity: http://samy.pl/proxygambit/ Still just a proof of concept, It uses linux on a Pi which should easily be exchanged for a BSD. ---------- Brian Coca From mleone896 at gmail.com Thu Jul 16 08:50:28 2015 From: mleone896 at gmail.com (Michael Leone) Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2015 08:50:28 -0400 Subject: [talk] anonymizing kit In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Ha that was based off the talk that disappeared at DefCon pretty cool project!!

But do you think whether the software can handle this?

I have something interesting to add here. I had worked on Java on FreeBSD, Where I found it was making use of proc file-system. So I would be only be amused they are actually hard coding the various user land properties.
