Understanding Active MQ
I come from the older IBM MQ Series environment, so I have some understanding
of MQ Series and how it works on a basic level.
I have been exploring Active MQ to replace an aging file transfer
application that was built in-house.
My question is...
Under IBM MQ Series, you needed to have both the MQ Server and MQ Client on
each site if you wanted to setup channels and local/remote queues. Does
Active MQ act the same way?
_or_
Can Active MQ have a central broker site and allow a 'point A' client send a
message to a remote queue found on the Broker site and then have 'point B'
could use another client to access that Broker holding 'queue' and download
the message?

Ok cool, so then I can use a single instance of the Active MQ as a master and
then just use clients to access the broker.
Okay, quick question. How do I setup queues for the remote clients to access
the broker? I found the conf/activemq.xml file for connectors, but I cannot
find any place to put in a simple test queue or even a dead letter queue for
mishandled messages.
Am I missing something or looking in the wrong place?

With ActiveMQ, clients and brokers are not required to reside on the same
machine/site. So the answer to your last questions is, yes. The point A and
B clients can exchange messages via the remote central broker.
