Hi Mats, Clustering is a shipping part of Tomcat 5. It works better in Tomcat 5 since it is container based instead of context based as in Tomcat 4.x.
There is not much document nor much noise because the implementation is quite simple. Inside the server.xml that ships with Tomcat 5 you will see clustering commented out and documented. Your web.xml will also need to have the <distributed/> tag, to mark each webapp you want sessions replicated for. I will shortly be working on some improvements to the clustering package, and if time/money permits also farming. However, I need to pay rent each month, so paying clients go first hand :) Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you?
