🚂 Model Internet Club

April 10 @ 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm

A drawing of two smiling turtles facing each other, with a wi-fi symbol over their heads. One is wearing a cowboy hat and the other is wearing a little bowler. Both turtles have computers on their backs. The text "Model Internet Club" is at the bottom in a typewriter font.

(Rescheduled from the 17th. Sorry about that!)

The Model Internet Club meets again on Wednesday, April 10th, 5:00–7:30 p.m. Newcomers are welcome.

The network is up and running! We now have a DHCP server, a DNS server with custom domain names, and handful of websites running as virtual hosts in Apache. And we now have a wi-fi access point!

We’re looking for websites to run on our local network. If you have an idea, email iffybooks@iffybooks.net or join us for our next meeting. If you’ve never created a website with HTML before, here’s a guide to get you started.

A photo of the Model Internet at Iffy Books, comprising two desktop computers, a switch, and a Raspberry Pi on a small table with two monitors. Another computer is displaying a website on the network. A white board in the background reads "Browse the Model Internet!" followed by a list of local URLs such as "http://alice.punk" and "http://zephyr.punk"

Diagram of a computer network with a network switch connected to a DHCP server, a DNS server, servers for community web pages (Apache), an offline wikipedia cline, and a bulletin board (phpBB). There are also three wi-fi access points connected to the switch, and a laptop at the bottom right with a wi-fi sybol. Text at the bottom says "Iffy Books Model Internet Club"
