Try setting the property "org.jboss.remoting.clientAuthMode" to "true" on both the client and the server, which you can do by adding it to the InvokerLocator. Setting it to "true" will tell the client to authenticate itself and tell the server to expect the client to authenticate itself. You should also set "UseSSLServerSocketFactory" to false to tell Remoting to respond to the SSL properties. See section "5.7.6. SSLSocketBuilder" of the Remoting Guide http://www.jboss.org/jbossremoting/docs/guide/2.2/html/index.html for more information.
