Thank you. I appreciate it. I found the following:

page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel
Looks pretty straight forward, but a build is in order. Does that
sound right to you?
that's it! although it may be rather out of date for g. 2.x.
What I would recommend doing is turning off the provided activemq-
broker and activemq-ra modules and deploying your own with
appropriate configuration, in particular with dependencies on all the
jars you need to make amq work this way. In trunk you can do this
pretty easily as a plugin but earlier you can just deploy the plans
into the running server using the console or command line deployer.
If there are hidden dependencies on the activemq-broker module (I
suspect some from openejb in geronimo 2.x) you may need to include a
line like
org.apache.geronimo.configs/activemq-broker//car=com.myco/myamq-
broker/1.0/car
in your var/config/artifact_aliases.properties.
I haven't actually tried this particular maneuver so there may be
complications. Feel free to ask for help :-)
You can also change the plan in the server source code and rebuild
but obviously that is somewhat harder to maintain.

Subject: Re: ActiveMQ: Network of Brokers
I can only point you in a direction to look....
I think you need to configure the activemq broker running in
geronimo using the spring (or xbean-spring) configuration rather
than through gbean configuration: then you can use the sample xml
the amq docs show. IIRC there is a flag on one of the AMQ gbeans
that tells it where the spring xml file is.
IIRC someone has succeeded in doing this and posted some info on
the dev list in the fairly distant past. There might be some wiki
docs but I don't think so. If you get this working and could
contribute some notes on a wiki page that would be great,
especially if you are using g. 2.x
thanks

Hello,
I am new to Geronimo and ActiveMQ and have been researching and
playing with both. With ActiveMQ, I really like the idea of a
network of brokers. And, of course, I like Geronimo as it provides
MDB, connection management, etc… as well as all the other app
server stuff. So, I have been trying to figure out how to set up a
network of brokers with Geronimo, but have not been able to figure
out how to do it in both directions.
Using the following configuration, I have run a stand alone
ActiveMQ instance and been able to send messages through it to the
Geronimo server but not the other way around (from the Geronimo
server).
<networkConnectors>
<!-- by default just auto discover the other brokers -->
<!--<networkConnector name="default-nc" uri="multicast://
default"/>-->
<networkConnector name="host1" uri="static://(tcp://somehost:
61616)" failover="true"/>
</networkConnectors>
I am looking for a way to have the ActiveMQ instance running within
Geronimo to listen to other servers as well as described here
(http://activemq.apache.org/networks-of-brokers.html). Am I going
about this correctly? Is this something that can be easily done,
meant to be done? Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul
