[PLUG] [plug-announce] Wed Mar 4 - PLUG Central - "How to secure your servers with Netfilter/iptables" by Sebastien Yapo (7pm at USP)

[Walt Mankowski via plug-announce via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

Just a reminder that the March meeting of PLUG Central is tomorrow
night. Sebastien Yapo will be speaking about Netfilter and iptables.

Our upcoming schedule for the next few months at Central is looking great:

* On April 1, Mark Jason Dominus will be giving a talk a git branching
  service he wrote called Greenlight.

* On May 6, Paul Jewell will be speaking about OpenRaster.

Unfortunately though we don't have any speakers on the schedule for
PLUG North. We especially need someone to speak on March 10. Anyone
want to volunteer?
