It appears the MBeans are registered in the listener with the MBeanFactor (AFAICT). I assume (yes just assuming by perusing the code) that we can swap out calls in here to register mbeans with our server. In otherwords, we could use our own MBeanFactory. In any case if its not doable then we go down the patch route which is fine. Jeff
