Hi David, I confirm that my request relates only to stateless beans and not to stateful beans.
Most of our business services are available for both Web and Swing applications. The management of state is supported by these applications. We do not use statefull beans. For loadbalancing, I think it is enough for us to add a class similar to org.apache.openejb.client.StickToLastServerConnectionFactoryStrategy (like RandomServerConnectionFactoryStrategy or StickToNextServerConnectionFactoryStrategy) and change the method getConnectionFactoryStrategy() of class org.apache.openejb.client.ServerMetaData. I take this opportunity to ask whether it is possible to extend the method getInitialContext(Hashtable environment) of class org.apache.openejb.client.JNDIContext to deal with a list of URLs (for key Context.PROVIDER_URL).
