[Michael Schultheiss]

The December meeting of CINLUG, the Central Indiana Linux Users' Group, is
scheduled for 6:00PM on Wednesday,  December 2, 2015.  The meeting is being
held at the Glendale Mall branch of the Indianapolis-Marion County Public
Library (IMCPL) - 6101 N. Keystone Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46220.

Directions can be found at http://www.cinlug.org/about/directions/Glendale

Anyone is welcome to attend the meeting. Dan Langille will be giving a
presentation titled "FreeBSD: Not a Linux Distro." FreeBSD is a Unix-like
operation system used around the world by companies such as Sony, Verisign,
Apple and Juniper Networks. Many may not know of its roots or how it is not
even a Linux distro at all.  FreeBSD offers powerful innovations such as
ZFS, Jails and Dtrace but still makes it easy to use since it is a complete
operating system and not just the kernel. Get started today with this
friendly little Daemon. More information is available at
http://www.freebsd.org/

Dan Langille has been using FreeBSD since 1998 and almost immediately he
started documenting his experiences. This online journal eventually became
The FreeBSD Diary. Along the way, he founded a couple of conferences
(BSDCan, PGCon) and created a few other websites. He is very good at
describing the step-by-step procedures to perform a wide variety of tasks,
from changing your prompt to creating and maintaining jails.

Additionally, CINLUG will be having a pitch-in holiday party - please bring
a dish to share with fellow CINLUG attendees.

The meeting agenda includes:
