CON INFO

PhreakNIC is Nashville's *FREE* annual hacker con. Anyone is welcome to attend. We create an environment where people who are interested in the more underground elements of technology can meet, exchange ideas and hopefully teach/learn. The primary focus is on computers and computer security, but we also cover other topics, such as radio (ham, pirate & low-power/community), SETI work, robotics, high-power rocketry, satellites, phones and phreaking, cryptography, etc. We are planning interesting things for our fifth year - please join us.

  • Con cost: Nothing, nada, not one damn cent; donations accepted and/or buy a con t-shirt.
  • Beer cost: BYO or kick in for the keg fund.
  • LAN: The hotel will be wired for r00t wars, gaming, file sharing, etc. in main conference rooms as well as individual hotel rooms. You run *YOUR* cat5 to *US* this year. We have Internet access via the hotel's fracT. A DHCP server will assign internal IP addresses for the different con LANs.
