In theory you should be able to configure jackrabbit file in repo-conf to access cluster over RMI. You might run in some issues when trying to initialize Magnolia tho. JCR-1.0 didn't deal with repo creation and node types registration so Magnolia tries to create own workspaces and register own node types by tapping directly on JackRabbit API and files ... that might be bit problematic in case of RMI access. You might be able to workaround by installing locally and then accessing over RMI. > > Or is it better to use the pre packaged jackrabbit and cluster it around a > shared database?

Are you sure you have multiple Magnolia instances using same repository? I found that unlikely. What I see as more common scenario is having multiple instances having each their own repo in same database. Magnolia instances are normally configured to use separate repository per instance so you don't need to scale up the repository, but instead you can scale horizontally by adding extra Magnolia instance to your setup having own repo and sharing the load with other instances.
