Tomcat 6, JMX and the dynamic port problem
after reading and trying a lot around, I have to ask if anyone has a solution for my problem. I am trying to set up some Tomcats (V6) behind a firewall. This is no big deal - but I want to monitor them via JMX. I read the TC docu and came across the JMXRemoteLifecycleListener . My test TC installation is set up exactly as stated in the above link. Thus I don't get a connection from one host in our network to another. Additionally a third, random port is open every time I start TC. In my server.xml the listener is activated <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.mbeans
