Session Sharing on Different Servers

Question

Is it possible to access the data of a session created in one server
          instance from a different server instance, without necessarily
          clustering? And if so - how?
          For example:
          User has a session created and some data stored on session of
          server1.domain.com.
          User then goes to server2.domain.com and accesses data of session
          created on server1.domain.com.

hi!
you look them up, just the same way as at the same container. you just have to specify the location of the JNDI, where the beans should be looked up (environment settings).
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
// com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory IS IMPORTANT
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "admin"); // user
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "admin"); // pwd
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://OC4J2/BeanAppl"); //location + applname
Context context = new InitialContext(env);
SBHome sbHome = (SBHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(context.lookup("SB"), SB.class);
SB sb = SBHome.create();
hope 2 help you ;o)
