BASE nmap Scripts by Tony Z
There is a function within nmap to use scripting capability called the nmap scripting
engine (NSE).
Using this scripting engine and the hundreds of vulnerability functions, one can run a
network wide vulnerability scan. Which may be useful in some situations.

For example – I noticed with some OpenVAS scans a certain vulnerability was present in a
few client systems (MS17-010 – EternalBlue)
So I plugged in the script test for ms17-010 and now I know _all_ the systems in the
network without running a hundred OpenVAS scans (which tend to be noisier as well).
MAIN Amateur Radio and Open Source Software by Kyle Kreig
Open source is alive and well in the Amateur Radio community. Many Amateur Radio operators
have designed and maintain open source projects that run on both the PC and Linux
platforms to help hobbyists make contacts around the world with their radios. In the
presentation we will explore what is Amateur Radio, how to get into the hobby and some of
the open source software applications one can use to get on the air and make contacts. If
you have your Amateur Radio license, we'd love to see you! If you are new to Amateur
Radio or have any interest in the hobby, come to the meeting and get more info!
SLUUG is your forum for exchanging information about OPEN standards, OPEN systems, OPEN
source, products, services and architectures.
We usually start the general meeting with our BASE introductory level session (often
focused on personal computing), which may include either simple tutorials, displays of
newly discovered web sites, command line wonders, demonstrations of useful applications,
amazing graphical packages, major resolution of long standing anomalies, blinking lights,
or quantum shifts in both time and space. Then we will have our usually quick welcome,
introduction, administrative announcements, and a Call For Help - Questions and Answers
Period. After all that, we take a break before our MAIN event.

VENUE St. Louis County Library - Thornhill Branch, 12863 Willowyck Dr, St. Louis, MO 63146
These meetings are usually held on the first Thursday of every month from 6:00 PM until
9:00 PM. Meetings are free and open to the public.
Room fees have been paid by the St. Louis Unix Users Group (SLUUG). We have no membership
dues or other charges for the meetings. So, please join us at our next meeting or event
for fun, knowledge and networking. All hardware, operating systems and software are
explored....
We hold a Linux Configuration Workshop when nothing else more interesting comes up, or
when there is no other event or activity scheduled. Problems with other operating systems
and hardware are also frequently fixed. New software tools are often demonstrated.
Linux is an Internet capable Networking Operating System that provides many fully
functional applications that perform well on both older and new computers. Most Linux
distributions are free or low cost and provides an extremely reliable and cost effective
alternative to high priced proprietary software.
The workshop is where we usually examine, troubleshoot, fix and repair difficult hardware
and software configuration problems for Linux newcomers.
Bring your Linux PC to our hands on workshop to troubleshoot your Linux installation,
network connection or X Window GUI configuration problem. We have full connectivity to the
Internet on site and know how to use it.
Just remember to bring your laptop or your PC with monitor, keyboard, mouse, cables,
cords, power strips and two discs or USB Thumbdrives.
