Hi,

Here is what we are trying to do. We are planning to
use active replication (we cannot use the pre-build failover and replication mechanism of JBoss.)

For examples we have three
replicas : JBoss_A and JBoss_B and JBoss_C (all
running on diff. physical machines.) Each one of them
have the same EJBs deployed on them.

Now we want to run a JNDI Naming Service on another
physical machine (JBoss_JNDI). Our clients will
essentially talk to JBoss_JNDI to get the references
to the EJBs. We assume that any of the JBoss_<A,B,C>
can fail but JBoss_JNDI cannot. And as far as I know
all the EJBs have to register with the JBoss_JNDI when
they come up (first time or after recovery.)

I hope I made this clear enough. Please do let me know
if you think there is a better way to do this in
JBoss.


thanks,
