hi again,=20
I guess this is probably a bit off-topic (for the tomcat mailing list).

for more info on Jboss, check out following urls on it:=20
  http://www.theserverside.com/reviews/thread.jsp?thread_id=3D6215
  http://www.theserverside.com/reviews/thread.jsp?thread_id=3D2918
  http://www.cmis.csiro.au/adsat/=20

for more info.

I can recomend Jboss, it=B4s very easy to use, and simple to configure.=20
The only big problem is it doesn=B4t support ejb2.0 (yet), but that is
because the spec is not finished.

OrionServer is also good... (www.orionserver.com) oracle have this one
for theyr j2ee implementation.

hope it helps,

I've looked at Caucho resin, Blazix.  How does JBoss compare with them?
I'm
aware that Resin is just a web server but it does support EJBs.  Is
JBoss
robust and secure enough to compete with Weblogig and other app servers.

Thanks

Peter

PS. I'm currently downloading JBoss now.

Tomcat is "only" a servlet/jsp container...
To get EJB support you need an EJB container such as Jboss...
Go to www.jboss.org and download a bundled jboss with tomcat for a
simple setup and all the reading material you need.

Hi there

Just been reading your postings.  Am I right in saying that Tomcat does
not
support EJBs?  What about tomcat 4?


Thanks

Peter
