Saint Louis Unix Users Group

The Saint Louis Unix Users Group (SLUUG) is an IRS 501c(6) designated not-for-profit professional association dedicated to education and communication among computer users. SLUUG members include many Linux and UNIX professionals, Networking experts, System experts, hobbyists, and students. Also, many who are interested in Unix, Unix-like Operating Systems, Linux, BSD and other Free Open Source Software (FOSS) applications, products, projects and services.

We have met continuously since we incorporated in July 1992. All of our meetings are free and open to the public. There is no individual membership fee.

Monthly Technical Presentations

Connection instructions will first be sent to our mailing lists and then linked here .

We will open the remote session at about 6:00 PM, Central Time, so that you can join early to test your microphone, screen sharing and video camera .

Then we start at 6:30 PM with our BASE introductory level session ( often focused on personal computing ); which may include either amazing graphical packages, blinking lights, command line wonders, demonstrations of useful applications, displays of newly discovered web sites, major resolution of long standing anomalies, quantum discoveries, smoke and mirrors, superb tutorials, or shifts in both time and space.

Sometime after 7:00 PM we attempt a quick welcome, introductions, announcements, current events of interest, and a general CALL FOR HELP (Questions and Answers) segment.

Sometime after 7:15 PM, we may take a short break before our MAIN topic ( often focused on enterprise computing ),

    MAIN Topic: Live upgrade of Bock from Debian 10 to Debian 11

    Presenter: Grant Taylor and Lee Lammert and a team of volunteers

    Join us and share transforming our main archive, mail, and web site server while we work together.

    We will do a *live upgrade* of our Debian Linux server. It has ~50 users. It runs a mail system, a mailing-list server, a web server,...

    We had to consider what software would be effected by the upgrade. Now you can all watch if we got it right.

    With your collaboration we can make these changes positive.

    Normally either an Abstract/Background/Details/History/Outline/Summary/Walk-through will be listed when available.
