This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------_=_NextPart_001_01C8A177.84384BAF Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Tried to post this earlier. Sorry if it gets posted twice. This may be an obvious or dumb question but under EJB restrictions it says "Specifically, enterprise beans should not: ... listen on, accept connections on, or multicast from a network socket". I understand the part about listening on sockets but why is it a problem to multicast? I know EJBs can be socket clients. Isn't multicasting like being a client since you are sending out a message rather than listening for it? Also it seems that the clustering implementations are done by multicasting, so it would seem that the Container is doing multicasting itself. I know that's a little different but I would like to know the reason why multicasting is outlawed. =20 Thanks, Doal Miller =20 =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D To unsubscribe, send email to [email protected] and include in the body of the message "signoff EJB-INTEREST".
