Change Localhost to static IP

[zer0n3]

Greetings guys,

I am trying to alter a JBoss install to replace the 'localhost' with an IP address. This is the first step for me to make a dual instance of JBoss on a single server with two IP address.

So which file(s) do I need to modify to change http://localhost:80 to http://100.20.101.240:80?

(No DNS name resolution or FQDN)

Thanks guys :)

I forgot to mention that I have hacked and slashed all the xml configuration files where "localhost:port" have been listed with a "static IP:port" but the application still only launches via the "localhost:port".

I am new to JBoss/Tomcat but I sure its a simple fix, it just eludes me.

Do you want port 8080? That is the default port for Tomcat in JBoss.

When you start Jboss and want to bind to a praticular IP address,

do


run --host=ipaddress where ipaddress is the ipaddress of the box where you are running.

Thanks Anil

That was just the fix I needed. The JBoss I am working with is a major customization of an older version running on a unusual port, the IP and port in the post were not the real ones.

Thanks again, both installs are working great!

Anil,

Could you suggest a lean book on JBoss configuration. By lean I mean something straight to the point, more advanced type of reading.

Your best bet will be the admin guide.
