Restrict access to a specific URL, running on IIS7 / ASP.NET

- by frankadelic

I am deploying a public ASP.NET website on an IIS7 web farm. The application runs on 3 web servers and is behind a firewall. We want to create a single page on the website that is accessible only to internal users. It is primarily used for diagnostics, trigger cache expiry, etc. /admin/somepage.aspx What is the best way to control access to this page? We need to: Prevent all external (public) users from accessing the URL. Permit specific internal users to access the page, only from certain IPs or networks. Should this access control be done at the (a) network level, (b) application level, etc.?

Organization moving from ASP.NET to WebLogic - training recommendations?

- by frankadelic

My organization previously used ASP.NET for web projects. They are now migrating to WebLogic/JEE for all future web projects. My experience as a Lead Developer / Architect is totally with .NET projects. I want to get ramped up on WebLogic/JEE, so I can contribute to future projects. Any training/certification suggestions for WebLogic/JEE, in a 6-month time frame? Assume that I will need to fund my own training, and I am working full time. So, money and time are limited.

Can a Java portlet be embedded in an ASP.NET page?

- by frankadelic

We have some portlets created by a team working on a JEE site. They would like to include one of these portlets within a site I manage, which is ASP.NET. Aside from solutions like iframes, is it possible to embed a Java portlet within an ASP.NET page? (Note: I don't have much Java/portlet experience, so please take that into consideration in your answer) UPDATE Is this relevant to my question? http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13174_01/alui/devdoc/docs60/Portlets/Basics/Hello_World_Portlet_NET.htm

In ASP.NET, can too many CacheDependency instances affect scalability?

- by frankadelic

I am building an ASP.NET application. Within each ASPX page, we are outputting inline snippets of HTML that are pulled from static text files. Similar to the example shown here: http://www.dotnetcurry.com/ShowArticle.aspx?ID=331 As in the article, we store the contents of the files in HttpRuntime.Cache with a CacheDependency pointing to the included file. For each cached file, the operating system needs to monitor a file for changes. Is this going to be a potential scalability problem? Does Windows 2008 have a maximum number of file change monitors?

SQL: how to get all the distinct characters in a column, across all rows

- by frankadelic

Is there an elegant way in SQL Server to find all the distinct characters in a single varchar(50) column, across all rows? Bonus points if it can be done without cursors :) For example, say my data contains 3 rows: productname ----------- product1 widget2 nicknack3 The distinct inventory of characters would be "productwigenka123"
