Display recreated InvokerLocator when bind address is 0.0.0.0
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBREM-1229
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBREM-1229
             Project: JBoss Remoting
          Issue Type: Task
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 2.5.2.SP3 (Flounder), 2.2.3.SP2
            Reporter: Ron Sigal
            Assignee: Ron Sigal
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.2.3.SP3, 2.5.2.SP4 (Flounder) 


Occasionally, the character "_" is used in hostnames, which is illegal, according to http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc952.txt.  The java.net.URI parser gets confused, and the detectable  phenomenon is the replacement of the port with -1.  

When 0.0.0.0 is given as the bind address, org.jboss.remoting.ServerInvoker calls org.jboss.Remoting.InvokerLocator.validateLocator() to create an InvokerLocator with a host accessible over a network.  By default, the host name is used, which leads to the problem described above.

If the system property InvokerLocator.BIND_BY_HOST (actual value "remoting.bind_by_host"), the host address will be used instead, which would work around the problem.
