I changed both of these in jboss 3 to conform to spec a couple of months
ago.

This is what jboss 3 does. Is there a way to do this in jboss 2.4? I don't
know what it is.

Yes, this is really silly.

This is the job of the app server specific deployment descriptor.  In
jboss, this is a ConnectionFactoryLoader mbean config: in weblogic, they
put a similar chunk of info in a weblogic specific file inside the rar as
part of the deployment.  The undeployed rar shouldn't be tied (through the
ra.xml) to a specific EIS instance, such as particular Oracle database.
