Max: I'd like you to clarify this issue. I just downloaded JBoss 4.2.3 and unzipped it and the server adapter started it properly. JMX is exposed properly from an unzipped downloaded 4.2.2. or 4.2.3 jboss installation. How exactly are you finding situations where a default installation does not have JMX enabled / exposed? Thanks. - Rob Max Rydahl Andersen wrote: > Hi rob, > > Last we talked about this subject you said that for GA you would make > it easy for users to setup custom AS servers with respect to how the > disabled jmx authentication requirement is causing problems.
