Security Conference Speaking Engagement
|
|
Ryan Fox, founder of several Open Source software projects, including
NOLA (nola.noguska.com), CCC,
and Portscan (www.backwatcher.org/portscan/), will be presenting "Starting and Running a Successful
Open Source Project" at the Rubi Con 5,
Data and Network Security Conference in Dearborn Michigan,
April 28th - 30th, 2003. He will cover reasons (right and wrong) for
starting a project, what to expect, how to get started and how to inform
the public. He will also talk about why to Open Source an existing
code-base and the differences between various Open Source licenses.
Ryan, a member of BackWatcher's security team, has been doing web
development for 10+ years, including developing commercial web
applications for Fortune 500 companies, and has spent more time than
he'd care to admit evangelizing the laurels of Open Source.

SBE, Inc. PCI WAN Adapter driver ports to OpenBSD
|
In partnership with SBE, Inc. and
the OpenBSD project, BackWatcher
is porting drivers to OpenBSD for the following PCI WAN Adapters
manufactured by SBE.
wanADAPT-C1T1E1 1 port channelized T1/E1
wanADAPT-C2T1E1 2 port channelized T1/E1
wanADAPT-C4T1E1 4 port channelized T1/E1
wanADAPT-HC4T1E1 4 port channelized T1/E1 with H.100
wanPMC-2T3E3 + PCI/PMC carrier 2 port "improved" 1T3
wanPMC-256T3 + PCI/PMC carrier 1 port channelized 1T3
There is currently an OpenBSD driver (lmc) for the following PCI WAN Adapters
which were aquired with Lan Media Corporation (LMC) by SBE in July of
2000.
wanADAPT-1SSI 1 port sync serial
wanADAPT-1T1LP 1 port T1/E1 (low profile)
wanADAPT-1HSSI 1 port HSSI
wanADAPT-1T3 1 port DS3
Other than lack of OpenBSD drivers for the PCI WAN Adapter cards we are
porting drivers to now, all of SBE's PCI WAN Adapter cards have
drivers for all of the major Free Unix operating systems,
Linux,
FreeBSD,
NetBSD and
OpenBSD.
