[NBLUG/Announce] General meeting TONIGHT: Kyle Rankin - Simple but Effective Server Hardening

[Allan Cecil]

Kyle's server hardening talk is tonight at 7:30 PM.  I'm looking forward to this talk as I'm sure there are half a dozen things I'll need to change on my own virtual private server after this... :)

We will also be finishing up the incomplete elections tonight.  See you there,

A.C.
