... well... another long time since the last entry.

what happened in the meantime?

  • have hacked a virtual ethernet transport (based on multicast) for user-mode-linux, so now we can have virtual ethernets between user-mode-linux'es on multiple machines
  • lots of netfilter+iptables stuff. Mainly the new infrastructure for conntrack + nat helper modules, and various bugfixing as well as releasing 1.2.2
  • digging into Wireless LAN, reading IEEE 802.11 specs, finding a shop where to buy a reasonable priced PRISM2 based card for 802.11 link-layer sniffing...
  • reading into IEEE1394 and the OHCI1394 specs, and the linux ieee1394 stack.
  • reading into SNA in general, as well as linux-sna
  • some minor enhancements for ulogd
  • Given a QoS talk at Linux Expo Sao Paulo
  • Given the same QoS talk at CEFET-PR (brazilian university in Curitiba)

some future stuff... I'm going to give talks at the following conferences/events:

  • LSM2001, Bordeaux, FR (about netfilter/iptables)
  • OLS2001, Ottawa, CA (no talk, just netfilter BOF)
  • HAL2001, Twente, NL (netfilter/iptables)
  • LBW2001, Bouillon, BE (netfilter/iptables)
  • Linux Expo Birmingham, Birmingham, UK (netfilter/iptables tutorial)
