I had planned to post a message describing the LJ meetup, but it turns out that there is a bug in my firewall setup that is interfering with the image I want to post. I'm fairly sure I know why too. I have this vague memory of thinking 'Now is the time to remove this ad-hoc shim and do things the secure way', when I was upgrading the firewall, so the shim went out, but I never put the secure gizmo in its place, so some of the machines inside my firewall are now slightly schizo. Isn't technology FUN???
