Thanks Peter for nohop option. We started JBoss with nohop option, but JBoss again shuts down after some time. Regarding the Putty session timing out. Yes it does after sometime. My understanding of Putty is that it is just a remote client to Start Jboss on the remote server. Once the server starts we should not have problems of Jboss shutting down even if the Putty session is expired. Please guide me on this if I am wrong. Thanks..
