Servlet / Jini Lookup pbm

[felix]

Hello,

I'm trying to contact a Jini lookup service (reggie) from a simple
servlet. I'm using Tomcat 5.5.7, Java 1.5.0_01, Jini 1.2.1 and
Solaris8.

The problem is that, after the call to LookupDiscoveryManager() (see
source code below), the "discovered()" method is never called back.

Here is what I get in my browser after an exec :
********
before LookupDiscoveryManager
end
********

I have successfully run a similar code in a standalone Java app (i.e.
without Tomcat / servlet), and everything is OK.

In fact, I have no error message nor Exception thrown. :-( I simply
don't have any response from reggie.

Any help would be appreciate,
Olive

PS: I'm new to Tomcat and Jini.
