Yup. Except they weren't designed to be as extensible as you'd like them to, with generic MBean support like JBoss provides. ;0 >I have heard a lot of good things about JBoss - mostly integrating various >J2EE components - however I am not yet familiar enough with ejb's, and jms >to use them in a production environment. Eventually, when I get out of You don't need to use them if you use JBoss. Part of the fun of a J2EE server is that you only use the pieces you need, but if you find that you need something else, it's usually already available. So I'd suggest you try JBoss, integrated with tomcat, for the best of both worlds ;) Use JBoss' advanced and yet easy to use MBean support, and tomcat for servlets / JSPs, etc. Good luck, Yoav Shapira Millennium ChemInformatics
