Most mailing list archives are available only to members of dc.sage who have a valid Web ID and password. The majority of the members of dc.sage feel that knowledge and information about systems administration should be shared freely on the Internet. However, recent misuse of our information resources for the gathering of names and E-mail addresses and the repeated bombardment of our members with unsolicited spam has led to our closing down of the archives. If you are a dc.sage member who does not yet have a web ID, or if you have forgotten your password, contact the mailing list administrators.

All messages to dc.sage mailing lists are archived here unless the author chosses to use the No Archive Option in the posting. This option can be used to prevent your message from being archived in these web pages.

Public Archives

The dc-sage-announce mailing list archive
This list is moderated and posting is restricted. The sole purpose of this mailing list is to make announcements to the entire membership of dc.sage members about upcoming dc.sage events. Any other postings (including announcements from other organizations) belong in the dc-sage list.

Private Archives

The dc-sage@dc-sage.org Archive
This is the original mailing list that defined dc.sage membership. Discussions should be (at least tangentially) relevant to systems administration, or sysadmin issues in Washington D.C. This list is unmoderated for members of dc.sage to post to and subscribe to. All other posting attempts will be moderated for relevance to existing threads and content.

The dc-sage-chat@dc-sage.org Archive
This is a new mailing list for random thoughts and babbles to/for/about dc.sage members. This list is unmoderated for members of dc.sage to post to and subscribe to. This list is where you should post if you believe that the topic does not really pertain to everyone and anyone on the list. In fact, this list is probably best used as a dc.sage BBS, except that any member may subscribe to this list and receive the messages in real time instead of reading them from the web ... if that is what you want.
