/etc/network/interfaces configuration for 802.1x authentication

Hey :)

I have a problem with adjust Network Manager for 802.x1 Tunneled TLS (TTLS) and MD5 in Ubuntu. MD5 does not exist in `Inner Authentication` when I choose TTLS.
I was forced to enter the settings to interfaces file (/etc/network/interfaces). Interfaces file content is shown below:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address xx.xx.xx.xx
netmask xx.xx.xx.xx
gateway xx.xx.xx.xx
wpa-driver wired
wpa-eap TTLS MD5
wpa-key-mgmt IEEE8021X
wpa-anonymous-identity USER_NAME
wpa-identity USER_NAME
wpa-password PASSWORD
wpa-phase1 auth=MD5
wpa-phase2 auth=PAP password=PASSWORD

Also you can use Open1X (XSupplicant).

Have a good time ;)

Installing Sun JDK 5 on Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04

Hello :)

As you known, Sun JDK version 1.5 or 5 is deleted from Ubuntu 10.4 and 9.10 repositories and the version 6 has been replaced.

The easiest way to install Sun JDK 5 version is add its repository from Ubuntu 9.04 to the list of repositories in 9.10 and 10.04. For this purpose, follow the steps.

1- Open /etc/apt/sources.list with a text editor like gedit:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

2- Add the following lines to the end of the file then save it and close:

  ## For sun-java5-jdk
 deb http://ir.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jaunty-updates main multiverse

3- Update the packages lists and install sun-java5-jdk:

 sudo aptitude update
 sudo aptitude install sun-java5-jdk

* Above method can be used for other applications.

Another way to install jdk 5 is download software package and its dependencies from packages.ubuntu.com.

Good luck
