Hello, zen fans of JBoss,

I am pretty much new to JBoss. I have read a few articles, searched about the 
different alternatives and decided to give JBoss a real try. But, what I am 
trying to do is rather unusual, and it's a huge challenge to find documentation 
on that specific topic.

I have an 'old' application, that I have been writing for 2 years now. It's a 
simple RMI client-server application, backed by a database on the server-side. 
It's a standalone RMI server, and the client is a simple Swing client, 
connecting to the server through a single exported object.

I want to port that application into a JBoss server, for flexibility and future 
extendability. As a matter of fact, I want to integrate email sending 
functionnalities and soon add web capabilities to access the data contained in 
the system. JBoss seemed the way to go.

So... how can I do that, with minimum hassle? I have my JBoss server setup on 
my dev machine, but now how do I tell JBoss "Hey, dude, boot that thing up!"... 
It used to be a simple main() method starting the whole server program, opening 
up the RMI registry on a specified port and exporting the server object on it.

I'd guess i need to wrap my program in a EAR package, with some descriptor to 
tell the server there is an exportable (or do I need to implement activatable?) 
object in there and it needs to be exported on an RMI registry?.. Or, would I 
need to wrap my application inside an EJB?

Well, if you have ideas, I'd love to hear them. Thanks in advance.
