Everyone likes pretty pictures. Visualizing your data is one of the
best ways to see the "Big Picture"™ and a great tool to do that
is RRDtool. In this talk, Aaron will discuss the basics of how to use
RRDtool, how to write RRDTool scripts in bash and python, including some
discussion on cricket and munin. Aaron also will give a few demo examples
of some interesting graphs and generic scripts he created for the talk.

General Meeting: Linux Troubleshooting
Start: 7:30 pm
End: 9:00 pm

When your Linux system has problems, there are a number of ways to track down and solve them. In this talk I will discuss my overall philosophy for troubleshooting and then follow up with more specific examples of how to diagnose common problems on Linux systems. This talk will be more server-focused but most things should apply to desktops as well.

General Meeting: Hijacking Web 2.0 Sites with SSLstrip and Slowloris
Start: 7:30 pm
End: 9:00 pm

Many Websites mix secure and insecure content on the same page, like
Facebook. This makes it possible to steal all the data entered on such a
page easily, using Moxie Marlinspike's SSLstrip tool. I will explain and
demonstrate this attack.

Slowloris is a very new layer 7 denial-of-service attack created by RSnake
that stops Apache web servers completely with very low bandwidth--one packet
every 2 seconds. The Apache developers were notified of this vulnerability
and decided it was unimportant and not worth patching. I will explain and
demonstrate this attack, and discuss various ways to protect your Apache
servers.
