----------------------------------

Before we make any changes (if we make any changes) I want to make sure we understand each other. Take this to the forums. JIRA is not the place for discussions. Until/unless we have the discussion, nothing will happen. Thanks.

> JBossTS integrated in JBoss AS 4.2.0 GA always binds some tcp ports to listen on all addresses. jboss.bind.address has no effect on the listen address, nor is it otherwise configurable.
> Looking at source code (for example ArjunaCore/arjuna/classes/com/arjuna/ats/arjuna/recovery/TransactionStatusManager.java in jbossts-jta-4.2.3.SP3-src.zip) confirms that there is no kind of support for binding the listen address, only the port can be freely selected.
> The listen address should be configurable, so that it can be limited to localhost, for example.
> In addition, if possible, it would be nice to be able to disable listening on any ports. I'm not sure if the TransactionStatusManager really needs to listen on any port in a simple JBoss AS installation.
