Clustering/distributed container..

[Christian Bjørnbak <bj...@iuas.dk>]

Hi

Does Tomcat 3.1 support clustering of JVM's/distributed containers, where
the sessions is replicated to the partipating servers???

According to the Servlet API 2.2, it's a feature all servlet containers need
to have...

If it isn't in this version when will it???

You might want to reread that text (admittedly, it is a little confusing).
Basically, the spec is saying *if* you support distributed sessions, your
container needs to obey a specific set of rules (such as "all concurrent
requests to a particular session must be directed to the same JVM").

As soon as someone contributes the code to make it do this :-).
