Hello everyone:
- I am trying to cluster JBoss across two Linux boxes.
- I Have installed the JEMS installer of JBoss 4.0.5 with EJB3 clustered option selected. (cluster-service.xml is present under "server/default/deploy" directory.
- I will only try to start configuring the 2nd server 'after' I get this server up and running:

I keep getting the following error:

I need some help to get past this error.

I can include my full "cluster-config.xml" or any other file in a following comment (to keep this posting clean.)

Thanks
