From http://www.jini.org, follow the link on the left to "Getting
Started". There are several examples there, including one from Dan
Creswell on creating a Jini service.

This is a better question for an Eclipse group. I'd suggest
using a text editor and command line rather than an IDE to get started
with Jini. You'll get a better understanding of the details and
mechanics instead of spending time fighting with an IDE.

I haven't tried 1.6, but 1.5 works.

You want a Jini service known as a JavaSpace. Dan Creswell
built Blitz (http://www.dancres.org/blitz/index.html), an open source
implementation. GigaSpaces (http://www.gigaspaces.com) has a
commercial, enterprise grade implementation underlying their Space
Based Architecture (DISCLAIMER: I work for GigaSpaces).

O.K.
What should I start now ?
(JINI come first or JavaSpace ?)
Let's examine JavaSpace,
need the simpliest sample only for that issue, step by step, please.
Thanks :)

I use kind of whiteboard, and it seems JINI covers other issues as well,
and it's like sinking in ocean.
I have found a good site : http://java.sun.com/developer/Books/JavaSpaces/
and started from there.
Next I started over finding to discovering Javaspace, using JINI :
LookupLocator & ServiceRegistrar, and also debuged my code ...
and now I am trying put the whole pazzle together.
I hope I'll manage soon ...
(But I didn't find so so good example arround the internet, that make my
efforts easier).
Thanks, anyway :)

Did you try Jan Newmarch's website?
I just got back from vacation -- I'll try to pull together an
example over the next few days.
