No, I meant IU LinuxFest. I'll also be at Ohio LinuxFest on October 11
if people want to do a keysigning there as well.

[BLUG] New GPG key

This is just an FYI. My last GPG key expired, so I've a new one.

I really should've caught it and signed the new one with the old one. :/

We should have a key signing party sometime.

It looks like the Linux documentation is in "DRAFT" state right now.
Available, but not currently searchable.

http://kb.iu.edu/data/axig.html

There's specific documentation for using IU Secure with Ubuntu 8.04,
Fedora 9, and openSUSE 11.

Cheers,

I do not think the VPN will be going away. The IU Secure SSID does let
you get full network access to all services without the VPN, if you are
OFF campus and in the cloud you will still need the VPN to get an IU IP
address. There are services that also utilize the VPN to restrict
services (some Library online materials) for licensing reasons. I do
not see VPN going away for some time, but one should always keep one's
ear to the ground.

Re: [BLUG] IU VPN connection on Linux

VPN for Wireless access will eventually be going away, to be replaced with the
"IU Secure" SSID. http://kb.iu.edu/data/awws.html

Currently there are live docs to set it up for Vista, XP, OS X, and iPhone.

I know they've been working on getting documentation for Linux to set this up,
but it isn't in the KB yet. The author sent me a draft, and I've pinged him to
see if I could pass it here.

IU Secure is much, much nicer than VPN. Most notably, you can change buildings
and not drop your connections.
