I have right now *exactly* the same problem... I'm trying to access a bean over a NAT, but I don't want to hard code the external IP on the beans since the IP is not static... So, I hope there is a solution soon. BTW, I would like to set the param "clientConnectAddress" as a URL and not an IP number since I want to use it with a dynamic IP number and a service like "no-ip"...
