------------------------------------

Scott,

It appears that with the recent changes around this, the following lookup:

MBeanServerConnection adaptor = (MBeanServerConnection) ctx.lookup("jmx/rmi/RMIAdaptor"); 

runs into issues (in EJB3 testsuite). This throws a:

javax.naming.Reference cannot be cast to javax.management.MBeanServerConnection
java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.naming.Reference cannot be cast to javax.management.MBeanServerConnection
	at org.jboss.test.JBossTestServices.getServer(JBossTestServices.java:154)
	at org.jboss.test.JBossTestServices.invoke(JBossTestServices.java:228)
	at org.jboss.test.JBossTestServices.undeploy(JBossTestServices.java:364)
	at org.jboss.test.JBossTestSetup.undeploy(JBossTestSetup.java:197)
	at org.jboss.test.JBossTestCase$1.tearDown(JBossTestCase.java:333)
	at junit.extensions.TestSetup$1.protect(TestSetup.java:24)
	at junit.extensions.TestSetup.run(TestSetup.java:27)


The root cause appears to be the class org.jboss.system.server.jmx.JMXAdapter (present in JBOSS_HOME/lib/jboss-system.jar) missing from the client classpath (which uses the jars in JBOSS_HOME/client folder, especially jbossall-client.jar). Looking at the name of that class, i don't think it would be appropriate to include that in the client jar files.
