Some remote clients not receiving messages

[srose]

I have jms running inside my jboss application server 4.0.3 rc2. In approx 10 machines I have tested and works great but in 3 machines , all running windows 2000 prof, they cant seem to get the messages. None of these machines have firewalls and I can see using the jmx console that they are connected to the topic , but for some reason, they just dont receive the messages. The only similarity I see with the machines is they are not on the domain, but when I connect to the domain, still no message received, no error message. I am using ejb3 and I can successfully use context lookup and connect to my session beans on these 3 machines. I cant figure out whats going on, any ideas?

anyone else have this problem? Or any ideas what it could be ?

I figured it out!!!. Apparently the time on the client machine was ahead of the time on the server machine. When this happens, JMS thinks the message has expires and drops it. Any recommendations on how to prevent this from happening?

Set time to live to 0 and this fixed it.

You should synchronize the clocks of your clients with the server.
