If true, this means you will have to have your application repository on one of the jboss machines or deploy more explicitly. I think you can either list the app urls explicitly in the scanner config or (what I'd probably do) write an ant script using the jmx task to explicitly deploy the apps. I think you can use the farm service without clustering to deploy to one jboss instance explicitly and have the deployments mirrored on the other servers automatically. > 4.

I seem to recall Greg talking about writing some kind of load balancer for jetty so you wouldn't need apache or anything else, but I don't know whether this is finished. david jencks > > Jason > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek > Welcome to geek heaven. > http://thinkgeek.com/sf > _______________________________________________ > JBoss-user mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user > > ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user
