Hi,

My company has two applications deployed as EAR files. One of these 
applications runs in a JBoss cluster on one side of the world (main app) and 
another runs a single JBoss server on the other side (second app).

I would like to be able to acheive SSO between these two applications i.e. 
users who authenticate with the main app are able to use the second web app.

I have read that is possible to acheive SSO between web applications within a 
cluster. So my first thought was to put the single JBoss server into the 
cluster with the machines across the WAN. My concern is whether this kind of 
configuration is just sensible as the servers are so far apart?

Can servers in a JBoss cluster be separated by a WAN? what are the implications 
of doing so?

The only reason for wishing to add the server into the cluster is to acheive 
SSO between the two web apps. If there a way to acheive the same things with 
JBoss servers that are not in a cluster e.g. Using JBossCache to replicate 
security information between the server on user logon?

I am using JBoss v4.0.2/JDK 1.4.8_06.

Regards,

Jeff.
