RE: London meet - ORGANISATION

["Keith Doxey" <lists.diyha@xxxxxxx>]

If someone can ensure we have a pair of powered speakers it would be good.

 

I hope to bring a clonky old laptop to demonstate my web based Jukebox. It will have a VERY limited choice as it only has a couple of gig of space but should prove the concept nicely. Might also be a bit slow as the laptop is a P166 with only 48M ram but it does work, some of the other machines can be used as the clients provided they have MSIE and a current version of MediaPlayer installed.

 

Getting excited now :-)

Right, Im happy to provide the infrastructure for this if someone can help
me move the stuff from my flat to the pub.  I have a sparc running dhcp
services, a wireless point i dont mind reconfiging and the switch which i
can just set all ports to auto on.  Does that sound any good?  Likewise its
also running a mock server so if anyone wants music i can bring a ddar and
speakers.

Thanks

Yes, with only an hour before the hoardes arrive, we'll have to get our
skates on..

First, I think we should agree what we want to try to set up...

a) Obviously we will want a 10/100 wired network,
b) Do we want to try to set up a WiFi network as well?
c) Presumably we will require DHCP services and so on
d) We'll require a machine to host Ian's HDD's with the MP3 archive on

Keiran is also nearby, available, and ready to assist... - K, I think your
Cisco switch would be our preferred option at the mo...

I reckon we'll need at least one server setup to do (c) and (d) above, - I
can take care of that if required, - I can build a W2K server in advance
with DHCP scopes configured and so on... and just plug it in on the day.

For a wireless setup, - who has the "easiest" WAP to provide? - mine's not
*too* bad (not hidden in the loft or anything), but I'd need to totally
reconfigure it, - turn off WEP, turn off MAC filter, change ESSID and so
on... - if anyone's got one that's not yet "in live use" that would save me
this hassle...

Or it could be moved to Kierans.... (I just *know* I've spelled that wrong!)
