Thanks!  That's not in the Jboss-3.2.1 book, so your response is much
appreciated.

Suitable punishment for a server that's given me nothing but grief for 4
days.  I finally got everything working, and now the hardware's failed
(mobo, according to the colo guys).  Some people get all the luck. :-)

Dead sure, although that'll be true for _some_ of them.  Every jar and
xml file deployed by JBoss (even with jbossweb-tomcat.sar disabled)
consumes an open NT File Handle for the lifetime of the JBoss process.

I'll try ScanEnabled=false and see if that changes the behaviour.

If not, this is probably worth looking into, as it seems incredibly
wasteful to hold onto those references.  Perhaps the Wintendo equivalent
of stat() is too expensive or doesn't exist, in which case JBoss's
behaviour makes sense.

Yes. :-)

I got around the problem by starting Jboss as an NT service with the
Java Service Wrapper.  This gets around the hard limit on the number of
open file handles for programs run from a CMD.EXE prompt, and around the
22MB heap limit for the desktop when Terminal Server is enabled.

Later in the week, I intend to post my notes on getting JBoss to work on
high-end PC hardware that's been encumbered with a Wintendo operating
system.  Probably not useful to serious Microsoft cluebats, but I hope
it'll help folks like me who've never had to administer Wintendo systems
before.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
