Simple Java AD/LDAP Authenticaion Code

There are so much of code and reference available for AD/LDAP integration in Java. I also searched a lot and the below code worked for me.
As a non-java developer I found so interesting while working on some complex java stuff.

 

import java.util.*;
import javax.naming.*;
import javax.naming.directory.*;
public class ADTestNew {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
        Hashtable env = new Hashtable();

        env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");

        env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"ldap://192.168.100.225:389"); //replace with your server URL/IP

        // This line is optional based on environment. You can try with comment or without comment also.
        env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION,"DIGEST-MD5"); //No other SALS worked with me

        env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,"login"); // the user name.

        env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "Passw0rD"); //the password.

        DirContext ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);

        ctx.close();

    } catch(NamingException ne) {
        System.out.println("Error authenticating user:");
        System.out.println(ne.getMessage());
        return;
    }
    //if no exception, the user is already authenticated.
    System.out.println("OK, successfully authenticating user");
    }
}

Happy Java.

Here’s an excerpt:

Madison Square Garden can seat 20,000 people for a concert. This blog was viewed about 61,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Madison Square Garden, it would take about 3 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

How to enable Apache mod_rewrite in openSUSE

I got a situation where my Apache mod_rewrite module was not enabled for my openSUSE machine.
Here is the simple way to do it.

First check which apache modules are enabled in your machine.

ankur@ankur:/srv/www/htdocs> grep "^APACHE_MODULES" /etc/sysconfig/apache2
APACHE_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_file authz_host authz_groupfile authz_default authz_user autoindex cgi dir env expires include log_config mime negotiation setenvif ssl userdir php5"

Second Change the apache2 config for modules and restart your apache.

ankur@ankur:/srv/www/htdocs> sudo vi /etc/sysconfig/apache2
ankur@ankur:/srv/www/htdocs> sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Syntax OK
Shutting down httpd2 (waiting for all children to terminate) done
Starting httpd2 (prefork) done

Finally, chech you module is installed.

ankur@ankur:/srv/www/htdocs> grep "^APACHE_MODULES" /etc/sysconfig/apache2
APACHE_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_file authz_host authz_groupfile authz_default authz_user autoindex cgi dir env expires include log_config mime negotiation setenvif ssl userdir php5 rewrite"

huh!! Its working.

Happy Apache.

कौन कहता है भगवान नाचते नहीं, तुम गोपी के जैसे नचाते नहीं |
अच्युतम केशवं कृष्ण दामोदरं, राम नारायणं जानकी वल्लभं ||

कौन कहता है भगवान नचाते नहीं, गोपियों की तरह तुम नाचते नहीं |

Neral – Matheran Mountain Railway

I like rail-fanning though I am not giving too much time on my this hidden activity. But one day I will be active rail-fanning guy.
Want to know all about train and trains. Even though today also its like daily adventure traveling via train in mumbai.

So we have decided to visit Matheran via Neral-Matheran Mountain Railways.
The train timings are very convenient. There are very few routes in India where toy trains are running. You can see http://www.trainenquiry.com/StaticContent/Special_Hills.aspx like for more detail.

In season time and on weekends the trains are running full, so you make sure you book train tickets well in time. You can book tickets via IRCTC website. So we did the same we have already booked the tickets.

Nerail is situated in Mumbai – Pune rail road. From Neral we can catch Matheran Train which takes 90 minutes average.

Neral-Matheran Train Time Table.

Neral Railway Station

Matheran Railway Station

A View of narrow gauge, it looks very less space between two tracks and put us into confusion that how a train run on such a narrow space.

Neral – Matheran Train traveling is all about fun, curves, hight, slow speed, toy train, stops, views and panoramas.

I clicked some of the train engines.

One by one every single engine is looking great and perfect. These trains are also used as passing goods to matheran city.
I clicked the insides engines photos also.. every other engines has its own gears and views…

Neral – Matheran Rail Engine Inside Views

The full track is covered as curves. Multiple curves in the routes.

Curves at Neral – Matheran route

And how about passing from tunnel – A fantastic view.

It feels good when toy train stops at between station and you enjoy a sip of tea.

Train also passes the road multiple times, all the time human barriers are available for others.

It again feel fantastic when train give full throttle and full whistle and it gives WOW experience.

It was really memorable journey. It begins here.

Happy Traveling.
