Hi Cyrille, Thanks for you reply. I have actually done what you suggested but that does not relate to the problem.
To better Illustrate I will give this example: If I run the code below from a servlet in Tomcat I will get a list of domains: String[] domains = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer().getDomains(); for (int i =0; i < domains.length;i++) { System.out.println(domains[i]); } If I run the same code from a generic java application I will get a different list of domains. This means that the platform MBean server is different inside Tomcat. What I would like to do is to reach that server, probably by replacing "ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer().getDomains();" with something else. Thanks again, Ben.
