To execute the cluster on the same machine i've opportunely changed these files for each one of FE1, BE1 and BE2 nodes

/<jboss-installation-directory>/server/\conf\jboss-minimal.xml
/<jboss-installation-directory>/server/\conf\jboss-service.xml
/<jboss-installation-directory>/server/\conf\jacorb.properties
/<jboss-installation-directory>/server/\deploy\http-invoker.sar\META-INF\jboss-service.xml
/<jboss-installation-directory>/server/\deploy\jbossweb-tomcat41.sar\META-INF\jboss-service.xml

/<jboss-installation-directory>/server/\deploy\snmp-adaptor.sar\META-INF\jboss-service.xml
/<jboss-installation-directory>/server/\deploy\cluster-service.xml

the changes was about ports numbers to avoid conflicts on the same machine IP.
