The DNS for techscene.com is set up. I hope to find time this weekend to set up a tool for group blogging.

I'm trying out various IDE's and editors for my Java education project. This is to help fulfill the industry's need for Java programmers, to help friends, and to practice my training skills. One constraint is that the tool I use for teaching must also work well under Windows. Making the students learn both a new operating system, and a new language, is too much.

I have started writing rlm_java, the FreeRADIUS Loadable Module for Java integration using Java Native Interface (JNI). The goal is to integrate RADIUS systems with Java-based business processes and J2EE. While it would be nice to have a Pure Java RADIUS server, that's too much work for now. I'm now waiting for feedback from the FreeRADIUS mailing list on how to present a good interface to the Java programmers.
