[jboss-user] [JNDI/Naming/Network] - JNDI lookup for object in remote server returns local object

I have a setup consisting of multiple machines, each running JBoss in a non-clustered setup. Clients all connect to one JBoss Master and that decides which of the other JBoss Nodes to use (Nodes): | Client - JBoss Master -- JBoss Node1 | -- JBoss Node2 | -- JBoss Node3 | (The above may not format nicely, but the concept is one client connects to one JBoss Master connects to many JBoss Nodes) The Master JBoss may also act as a Node. I use the following code to get to a Stateless Session bean in one of the nodes | String ipAddress = getNodeIPAddress(); | | Properties properties = new Properties(); | properties.put("java.naming.factory.initial","org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory"); | properties.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs","=org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces"); | properties.put("java.naming.provider.url",String.format("%s:1099", ipAddress)); | | Context context; | context = new InitialContext(properties); | NodeRemote remote = (NodeRemote) context.lookup("node_ear/Node/remote"); | | | 1) If I don't deploy node_ear into JBoss Master, it works fine. The remote object is bound to whichever remote JBoss Node's IP address was given. 2) If I do deploy node_ear into JBoss Master (in my case, the Master can also be a Node) then I get a locally bound NodeRemote object. It seems once an initial context object is created for the local context, I cannot get a remote context. I am admittedly very new to JEE programming and JNDI concepts and am probably making a very fundamental mistake. I have searched around for an answer, but I may be searching for the wrong things. Any help or pointers to help would be most appreciated! View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4095200#...
