Please excuse the noobish questions as I beat this topic to death. I put in the valve listener in tomcat and thats fine. But where im stuck is how do I now syncronize the different apps on my virt host? SHouldnt there be some changes im making to the code of each that says 'use the valve' somehow? Im not even sure what to google to figure out the answer. Thanks View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3984976#...
