Unfortunately--protected or not--no network is exempt from an attack. The only difference between those spared damage and those thrust into chaos will be the security strategies you prepare in advance. The solutions you implement early. And the leadership you show ahead of coming threats. Here's what to do now before you make headlines: Attend "Network Security: Structuring an Aggressive Defense." http://www.fattail.com/redir/redirect.asp?CID=88448 _______________________________________________________________ Today's focus: Rebuilding Jboss from source code By Steve Blass How can we build a Jboss Web application server from the source code? When we try to do it in our integrated development environment, we get project configuration errors because the source code is arranged differently than our tools expect. Jboss is most easily built by running the included build scripts from the command line. The Jboss distribution packages build from the command line without much trouble. To build the Jboss application server you need Jboss from <http://www.jboss.org/> and a Java Development Kit (JDK). You also will need Ant from <http://ant.apache.org/. Install your JDK. Unzip Ant and add the ant\bin directory to your PATH environment variable. Unzip the Jboss distribution into a clean directory and run the build script found in the build directory. If all goes well the application server will be compiled and placed in a directory named "output" inside the build directory. Go to the 'build\output\bin' directory and execute the 'run' script. Test the installation by aiming your browser at http://localhost:8080/jmx-console If you see the Jboss console page, you have successfully built Jboss and can deploy applications. Be sure to change the default admin password to protect console access.
