My JBoss version is 4.0.4GA. In jboss-remoting.jar (in meta-inf/manifest.mf) the specification version is 1.4.3. The default timeout is 1800000. For this version, the timeout configuration don't work with "socketTimeout" parameter but with "timeout" parameter. Like this : | <attribute name="InvokerLocator">socket://0.0.0.0:3873/?timeout=60000</attribute> | Nicolas Medoc View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4119562#...
