[jboss-user] [Remoting] - what does this mean?

Could somebody please explain to me this exception I get on the client side? | org.jboss.remoting.CannotConnectException: Can not get connection to server. Problem establishing socket connection for locator - InvokerLocator [socket://127.0.0.1:3873/] | at org.jboss.remoting.transport.socket.MicroSocketClientInvoker.transport(MicroSocketClientInvoker.java:319) | at org.jboss.remoting.MicroRemoteClientInvoker.invoke(MicroRemoteClientInvoker.java:116) | at org.jboss.remoting.Client.invoke(Client.java:612) | [several more omitted for brevity] | Caused by: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect | at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method) | at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(Unknown Source) | at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(Unknown Source) | [several more omitted for brevity] | I use EJB3. Does it mean I also need to open port 3873 on the server? (currently 1098,1099,4444 are open). And why does it refer to localhost, when I did set java.rmi.server.hostname to the server external IP? (The server is bound to 0.0.0.0 because binding it to the external IP causes many exceptions) (4.2.0 CR2) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4045205#...
