Properties File Across Clusters

[brian janaszek <bm...@anklebiter.net>]

Hi

I'm currently working on a web application that will be deployed across
a cluster of application servers.  There is no database connectivity. 
I'm currently using a properties file to hold information about the
application, including a username and password to post information via a
servlet to a third-party application.

Here's the catch...

The password for the third-party must be updated every 60 days (and I'm
providing a web interface for the update).  Without a database, I
thought I could use a properties file or a flat text file to store the
password information, but how do I keep the information synchronized
across the nodes of the server cluster?  

There's a possibility that I could use a Lotus Domino
database/ProfileDocument to store the information (bleh) since my client
uses Notes, but I'd rather go down that road.

Any ideas?

TIA
b
