This newsletter (containing current articles, code samples, and hot projects) is posted on the first and third Thursday of each month. The purpose of this newsletter is to help developers become proficient in the use of key technologies on the Linux platform and to provide current content on Novell technologies to aid you in creating business solutions.
Novell launched DeveloperNet Professional ($299), a yearly developer subscription. DeveloperNet Professional is the primary channel for the delivery of development tools, information, and technical support to our developer audience. The main benefits of the DeveloperNet Professional level are two service requests (direct phone support from Novell Developer Support engineers); early access to products such as Novell Linux Desktop, SUSE Linux enterprise server, and OES; and a welcome kit with Novell products on media. If you would like to join or would like more information, visit the program page.

The JBoss Application Server (JBoss AS) which ships with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 (SLES9) is a J2EE 1.4 certified, scalable, open source, enterprise class Java Application Server. With its superior performance and strict standards compliance, it is taking the Application Server market place by storm. See http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/14912.html.
This is the first in a series of articles to explore building multi-tiered service-oriented systems on the JBoss 4.0 platform. This article outlines JBoss service-implementation fundamentals as well as techniques for instrumenting services using JBoss and JMX. See http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/15271.html.
This is the latest article in a series of articles discussing service-oriented systems development on JBoss 4.0. In the previous article, we discussed how JBoss's use of plain Java objects and JMX-based management techniques enables service developers to define and implement services that can be deployed and configured in many different configurations to meet business demands. See http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/15571.html.
The previous article offered some commentary on JBoss basics for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 with "An Introduction to JBoss." While the article covered a lot of ground, JBoss is a topic on such magnificent scale than no single article could do it justice. Luckily the hard work has already been done with JBoss 4.0 â The Official Guide from Sams Publishing. We examine the book here and look at the highlights you'll encounter. See http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/15846.html.
Mod_eDir is an Apache 2.0 module that provides eDirectory services for the Apache web server. Mod_eDir provides authorization, remote file system access, and eDirectory based home directory support.
