Projects

This section will shortly be updated with some projects I have been working on. The following will give you a small teaser.

SCJD Project as a web application

A couple of years ago, I noticed a trend amongst those attempting the Sun Certified Java Developer (SCJD) assignment. Many candidates were either planning on attempting the Sun Certified Web Component Developer (SCWCD) exam once they had completed their SCJD assignment, or were taking a break during the SCJD assignment to study for the SCWCD.

I thought it might be cool to throw together a web application that is familiar to those who have read my book that just happens to demonstrate many of the items that SCWCD candidates need to study.

You can see the initial version of this here. Note that there is currently a problem with the installation of the web project - not sure what broke when my ISP changed my server.

Restrict VNC connections by IP addresses

Some time back one of my friends wanted to set up his VNC server to accept connections but only from specific IP addresses. Normally this would be handled by the firewall, however he did not have a dedicated firewall (he was using his router as a pseudo-firewall). So I created a simple application that provides an easy way to update the Windows Registry with the allowed IP addresses - VNC honors this configuration.
