like i said, afaik 3.2.6, clustering is already enabled by default when you star the server with a -c all option. If you start another instance on another machine with a -c all, you can see on the console that both the servers are visible to each other as long as on the network level the multicast address they use are routable between the 2 networks each machine is in..
The simplest case is for testing would be to put both machines on the same network on the same hub/switch. Also most linux distros will have a firewall installed by default that may block multicasts depending on the options you set when installing... so if you cant get the cluster to work, does not necessarily mean jboss is not working, check your network and your os setting... heh you can even install a linux kernel without multicast support.. As far as using the clusters, i've so far only tested EJB fail over, basically you just need to configure your EJB as clusterable in the jboss.xml file as such, | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <jboss> | <enterprise-beans> | <session> | <ejb-name>MyEJB</ejb-name> | <jndi-name>MyEJB</jndi-name> | <clustered>true</clustered> | </session> | </jboss> | Also, in your ejb lookup code (i.e. the client), you need the following jndi properties | java.naming.factory.initial=org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory | java.naming.factory.url.pkgs=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces | Notice , we dont specify a provider url i.e. jnp://localhost:1099 because we dont want to be tied to a specific jboss server. Anyway thats all i've experienced so far. If you want http fail over and session replication, i believe thats between your web server and tomcat which is another topic altogether.
