copy of a new magazine devoted to all things BSD- BSD Magazine.Published by the same folks who put out Hakin9, an excellent magazine devoted to information security, the new BSD Magazine has several cutting edge articles about BSD. Some articles in the current issue include:
- Pushing BSD as an open source desktop...
- PC-BSD overview...
- Sguil 0.7.0 on FreeBSD 7.0...
- How to Dual-Boot Vista with BSD – a step-by-step approach...
- Keep smiling, waste spammers' time...
- OpenBSD pf – the firewall on fire...
- Instant Messaging with Jabber/XMPP...
And if you happen to look closely, you'll see the very first advertisement for the BSD Certification Group. The ad is for the recently released BSD Associate certification.
Special thanks go to the fine folks at iXsystems who helped developed the professional quality graphics and layout. That's their logo in the lower right corner.
We hope to have more advertisements in BSD Magazine in the future.
The BSDA certification is gathering steam. We've presented the exam at conferences in Los Angeles, Ottawa, Krakow, Brussels, Toronto, Berlin, Ede, and Chemnitz. So far, over 400 people have registered for a BSDCG ID, which you need to do before you register for an exam. Some of the comments we've received from the exam said it was "harder than I thought it would be" and it "made you think". Be sure to read the Exam Objectives, currently available in English, Mexican Spanish, and Russian.
If you would like to see the exam at a conference near you contact us, and we'll try to arrange for an exam at that conference.
