The Boston Network Users Group

This is SteveI's version and information on upcoming BNUG meetings. See: https://bnug.org for the group's official site.

The Boston Network Users Group (BNUG) provides an educational and technical forum for anyone interested in computer networking, computer support, and related topics. Our free monthly meetings are opportunities to meet technical professionals, expand your knowledge, and get better at what you do or want to do. BNUG was founded in 1986 and has never charged member dues (nor do we plan to; we are grateful that some members are able to donate to support the group).

To receive meeting notices, sign up by sending a blank email to: subscribe@bnug.org.
We won’t get upset if the email message isn’t entirely blank, we promise. The list is closely monitored, it’s for group announcements only.
