If you've registered for NZNOG 2009 (http://2009.nznog.org/register)
you will have seen that we are holding another network administrators
miniconf on the Wednesday tutorial day. We'd like to try a different
format this year and have a few BoF-style sessions on various ISP
systems/network management topics, each with a brief introductory talk
followed by an extended discussion period (10-30 minutes depending on
interest in the topic).
We would like suggestions for topics of interest to anyone planning
on coming to the miniconf. We would also welcome any offers to speak for
a few minutes (5-15 minutes) on a topic as a lead into discussion.
This is your opportunity to find out what your peers at other ISPs have
found does or does not work.
Some topics that have been mentioned in informal discussion, or happened
in previous years:
- system configuration automation (puppet, bcfg, cfengine, etc)
- system/network monitoring (nagios, etc, especially scalability)
- mail systems/spam filtering/webmail
But there are plenty of other possible topics so let us know what is
relevant to you at present.
Please send topic suggestions and offers to talk to:
