Fixing your firewall with ChatGPT!

Presented By: Lee Lammert

Have you ever had to fix/update a firewall? Using iptables, perhaps, instead of some vendor GUI? Any recollection of how complicated it can get, *especially* if you don't do it every day (or every monty or every year)?

Tune in to the SLUUG Main presentation Wednesday to see how it can be done (mostly) PAINLESSLY using Chat GPT!

KVM for Beginners

Presented By: Ken Johnson

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a free and open-source virtualization module in the Linux kernel that allows the kernel to function as a hypervisor. KVM requires a processor with hardware virtualization extensions, such as Intel VT or AMD-V. KVM has also been ported to FreeBSD in the form of loadable kernel modules. KVM supports hardware-assisted virtualization for a wide variety of guest operating systems including BSD, Solaris, Windows, Haiku, ReactOS, Plan 9, AROS, macOS, and other Linux systems. (extract from Wikipedia article)

This presentation will help you get started with KVM if you have never used it before, or have not used it for a very long time.
