Right, this is the server side. Where to put that code depends on your type of server. In case of a standard servlet container, however, things are much simpler as the jackrabbit-webapp component already takes care of registering RMI, if configured. I'd recommend to start with the standalone jar [1]. > But then I would also need an example > client code to show me how to actually talk to it. I am sure its all very > simple Yes, it's simple, the sample code for the client is on the same page directly below that, named "Accessing a remote repository" ;-) The RMI URL will look something like rmi://localhost/jackrabbit.repository (when using the standalone server). See here [2] for more sample code by someone else on the list. What you need for the client code to work is the jcr-1.0.jar (for the JCR API) and the jackrabbit-jcr-rmi.jar.
