Hi guys, I posted an answer on the related Remoting forum. I don't know what's going on here, but, for what it's worth, I can tell you that Remoting doesn't create leases when the client and server are in the same JVM (unless you set "force_remote" to "true"). Don't know if that's relevant. Howard, why do you think there's a problem with LocalClientInvoker? -Ron View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4219631#...
