OK. I've got a much better version of this working now based on Toby's suggestion. This is actually working quite well. I haven't tested this with EmbeddedTomcat yet, but I don't forsee a problem. InstantDB does not work properly, as it uses a relative path. I would suggest doing the jboss.home property treatment, similar to what I did to org.jboss.Main. I don't use InstantDB, so removing it's entry from jboss.conf fixed that for me. YMMV.
It does require a patch to 1 line of org.jboss.Main. This patch and the changes to the shell scripts below will make it possible to start and stop jBoss from any directory (no cd'ing to jboss_home/bin required)

Here are modified versions of run.sh, plus a setenv.sh and shutdown.sh (put these in the jboss bin directory):

On RedHat, this script can be put in /etc/rc.d/init.d, and then symlinked to the appropriate runlevel directory:
jboss:
#!/bin/bash
#
# jboss: This file will start and stop jboss
#
# Author: Jason Vasquez ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
#
JBOSS_HOME=/opt/jboss
# See how we were called.

echo "$0: call me as \"jboss start\" or \"jboss stop\" please!"
exit 1

wow. that is so much better than my way. I wish I had thought of this earlier today!
Thanks for the tip.
I'm going to go ahead and put together some start and stop scripts that will work with Linux based on this method...
Thanks,
Jason

Hi. In my company we use a start script (this is for WebLogic, but the
principle's the same) that record the pid. In sh, you can get the pid of
the process you just started using $!, so we do
java -classpath ... -Detc=whatever weblogic.Server > server.out 2>&1 &
echo $! > PID
and then to stop it it's simply
kill `cat PID`
Regards,
Toby.
