Weekend Aantel’s Blog

In a few more hours, I’ll boarding the Darjeeling Mail from Sealdah and be on my way to the New Jalpaiguri (NJP) station, in North Bengal. From there, my host, Siliguri Institute of Technology (SIT) will be taking me over to their college which sits close to NH55.

A Techno-India Group College, SIT is organising a 2-day seminar on Linux System Administration, utilizing a AICTE seminar grant. The focus of the Seminar would be towards Network Administration. My guess, its the lowest common denominator. However, I believe my presentation may take them a little by surprise. More on that later.

The audience is expected to comprise of  the faculty, staff members and students of SIT, along with participants from other colleges. Speakers include, Prof. B. Maji Techno India Group, Mr. Kausik Halder, Netaji Subash Open Univesity, Mr. Swagata Pal, Techno India Group, and myself.

I’ll be carrying Shashank’s new book “Beginning Fedora : From Novice to Professional” with me. Thanks Julie from Apress for sending me a review copy, it arrived at a rather handy moment. I expect the book to  be a  major hit with new users of Fedora .
More when I get to Siliguri. I hope to connect to the Net from SIT, but you never know, with the weather being so bad.
