Java.net has an article on Tomcat and LDAP setup here. Nice and simple setup that’ll work in many situations, but I sometimes find that you need more than simply roles.

Spille on the dark side
It’s been a while since he posted this, but Mike Spille is taking a stroll on The Dark Side, he’s doing an app in .NET! 😉 He has good reasons for doing this: doing a realtime Java app is one thing, but this app he is making also needs some low level monitoring and hardware interaction. He’s just using the right tool for the job.
I’d like to do a project in .NET to get some experience with it. Beeing a webapp developer mainly, it would be cool to do a .NET web project to get a basis for comparison. I suspect I would miss Java though. Maybe not the language, but the platform and the community. The experince would probably be made better if I got to use stuff like NHibernate, but I suspect that both the number and maturity of the OpenSource frameworks for .NET is way behind Java.
Know thy enemy. 😉
