SSL configuration in JBoss


To configure an SSL port with keystore , check the following steps:

1. Generate the keystore with the following command ( using the java keytool command)
keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA -keystore NAME_OF_KEYSTORE -validity NUMBER_OF_DAYS
( For more details check the url http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/windows/keytool.html )

2. Copy the file into the jboss/server/<NAME>/conf/ directory

3. Edit the server.xml in the following path
JBoss version 4.0.4 = jboss/server/<NAME>/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/
JBoss version 4.2.2 = jboss/server/<NAME>/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/

4. For JBOSS 4.0.4 the SSL-connector should be configured like:

<!– SSL/TLS Connector configuration using the admin devl guide keystore     –>
<Connector port=”THE_PORT_YOU_LIKE” address=”${jboss.bind.address}”
maxThreads=”100? strategy=”ms” maxHttpHeaderSize=”8192?
emptySessionPath=”true”
scheme=”https” secure=”true” clientAuth=”false”
keystoreFile=”${jboss.server.home.dir}/conf/THE_KEYSTORE_NAME”
keystorePass=”PASSWORD_FOR_THE_KEYSTORE” sslProtocol = “TLS” />

For JBOSS 4.2.2, configure it like this:

<Connector port=”THE_PORT_YOU_LIKE” protocol=”HTTP/1.1? SSLEnabled=”true”
maxThreads=”150? scheme=”https” secure=”true”
clientAuth=”false”
strategy=”ms”
address=”${jboss.bind.address}”
keystoreFile=”${jboss.server.home.dir}/conf/THE_KEYSTORE_NAME”
keystorePass=”PASSWORD_FOR_THE_KEYSTORE”
truststoreFile=”${jboss.server.home.dir}/conf/THE_KEYSTORE_NAME”
truststorePass=”PASSWORD_FOR_THE_KEYSTORE”
sslProtocol=”TLS”/>

5. Now you should be able to access your application through https. Remember to use https:// instead of http:// in your browser-url, or else it will fail.

6. If you want to disable the non-secured port 8080, comment and disable that connector in the same server.xml.

7. Example for jboss-4.0.5.GA
jboss-4.0.5.GA\server\<application>\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat55.sar\server.xml

<!– SSL/TLS Connector configuration using the admin devl guide keystore –>
<Connector port=”8443? address=”${jboss.bind.address}”
maxThreads=”100? strategy=”ms” maxHttpHeaderSize=”8192?
emptySessionPath=”true”
scheme=”https” secure=”true” clientAuth=”false”
keystoreFile=”${jboss.server.home.dir}/conf/my.keystore”
keystorePass=”pwd123? sslProtocol = “TLS” />

How to simulate Browser back button

When someone asks how to simulate a back button, they really mean to ask how to create a link that points to the previously visited page. Most browsers tend to keep a list of which websites the user has visited and in what order they have done so. The DOM window object provides access to the browser's history through the history object. Moving backward and forward through the user's history is done using the   back(), forward(), and go() methods of the  history  object. To move backward through history, just do window.history.back() ; This will act exactly like the user clicked on the Back button in their browser toolbar. Find below a sample html code: <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function goBack(){  window.history.back() } </script> </head> <body>    <input type="button" value="Back" onclick="goBack()" /> </body> </html>

ATG : Oracle started new discussion forum for ATG

Advance Tax/Self Assesment Tax and Interest u/s 234B and 234C

Read more about Tax filing @  http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2011/07/income-tax-process-and-e-filing.html  . If you are a salaried person there is tax deduction at source (TDS), which takes care of the tax payments for your salary. At the same time, there will be additional liabilities for income like interest on deposits, bonds and even capital gains which might require you to pay Advance Tax. Advance tax has to be paid in several installments in September, December and March. Self-assessment tax is the difference between the tax paid and the tax payable.You can figure out the self-assessment tax amount when you make the final income tax calculation. There is no specific date for paying this tax but it has to be done before you file your income tax return so that no further amount of tax remains to be paid. While computing advance tax, income-tax on the current income has to be first determined and the tax on such income has to be determined. As per section 208, adva...
