Hi: I know that I can use "java -jar admin.jar <etc>" from the commandline on host 1 to stop and restart Orion on host 2. This, however, requires admin.jar (and others?) on host 1. Can someone tell me if there is a programmatic method, that does not require any installation of Orion on host 1 for any of the following, and if there is, how to do it for each case? 1. from host 1, shutdown a web-application running on host 2 2. from host 1, start a web-application running on host 2 3. from host 1, restart a web-application running on host 2 4. from host 1, shutdown Orion on host 2 5. from host 1, restart Orion on host 2 Again, I'm looking for a *programmatic* way to do this. If this means admin.jar on host 1, where's the API docs for making calls of this guy without having to resort to the commandline? Right now, we're resorting to doing these things by using the commandline, manually, and writing code to remove web-apps out of the application.xml and default-web-site.xml files. This doesn't seem like a great solution... Thanks, Kit Cragin VP of Product Development Mongoose Technology, Inc. www.mongoosetech.com
