RE: HttpSession Replication in Tomcat Cluster not working with EJ B's!
Filip, You were right. It's works with the handle. Thanx for all the co-operation. cheers Suraj -Original Message- From: Filip Hanik (lists) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 27, 2004 5:51 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: HttpSession Replication in Tomcat Cluster not working with EJ B's!

Andy, I agree with your point about a SFSB being an extension of a client.
