It's been a while since I last blogged. It's probably been around 10-12 weeks. I could calculate it though I cannot be arsed to look at my last blog post date. There's been a number of reasons why I have not took too much of an interest. Perhaps the novelty on blogging on my own website has warn off. Maybe I've been busy dealing with life's personal problem or it could be suggested that I've been busy on other factors that's been placed on my lap in recent times.
One personal trait that I need to enhance is my level of discipline. I have a tendency to re-adopt the 'yeah, fuck it' mentality if I'm not encouraged, constantly overlooked and continuous praised by close members. I hit a couple of road bumps and tell myself the world can go fuck themselves.
Nevertheless I'm back on the blogging scene and have some bright ideas for the remaining 6 months of this golden year. I believe the biggest issue I've had is the limitation on uploading blogs to my website. Typically I would write out this blog in textwrangler, manually add the CSS coding, test it on my local database, then if all is OK upload it into my production environment.
This process is painful to the point where I've given up. To feed my enthusiasm and avoid complacency to the point on the 'yeah, fuck it' mentality, I intend to develop some JFrame on my local environment and populate my blogs whilst on the road. There's so much I need to think about though I've tested the connection using a JDBC connection and I'm able to pull data... so the connection issue is out of the way, for now.
Secondly, I need to become an aviation pilot. I have booked some cheap flying lessons with the consensus on taking cheap travel around the US (Though I am not sure what the policy is on foreigners flying low around a highly-dense location such as New York City.
Thirdly, I've restarted my revision. Now I dominated the CISSP exam, I will now focus on achieving my CISM exam. Even though I only have less than 1 years experience. I still believe the exam can be achieved easily because the syllabus is only a segment of the CISSP exam questions. I hope to complete this within 16 weeks, along with measuring up other certifications and examinations such as the GMAT, OCJP as well as others.
Fourthly, I need to ensure the remaining countries on Earth visit Technical Confessions at one point. Other than Central Republic of Africa along with the Norwegian islands, every other country in the world has, at some since April 2012, has at least visited one site page.
Also, there's a state that hasn't visited my site! Without googling it, I don't know that state though I will be closely monitoring this.
My vision for my blog is promising for the upcoming weeks. Let's see if I can apply consistency and discipline by continuing my blog.
Oh, and happy birthday TechnicalConfessions

For what I see, there's not too many supportive documentations out there that will demonstrate how provision AD group membership with the ICF connector using OpenIDM. The use of the special ldapGroups attribute is not explained anywhere in the Integrators guides to to the date of this blog. This quick blog identifies the tasks required to provision AD group membership from OpenIDM to AD using the LDAP ICF connector. However this doesn't really explain what ldapGroups actually does and there's no real worked example of how to go from an Assignment to ldapGroups to an assigned group in AD. I wrote up a wiki article for my own reference: AD group memberships automatically to users This is just my view, others may disagree, but I think the implementation experience could be improved with some more documentation and a more detailed example here.
