Looks like the client is obtaining the Proxy from the remote server, but the Proxy is attempting to invoke upon localhost (127.0.0.1). ...Proxy Obtained: anonymous wrote : at $Proxy0.getUser(Unknown Source) ...Invoking on localhost: anonymous wrote : Can not get connection to server. Problem establishing socket connection for InvokerLocator [socket://127.0.0.1:3873/] I wonder if by manually setting "-b" at startup, you instruct JBoss to have the Property "jboss.bind.address" set to localhost, which is where the InvokerLocator will bind to. Might be best to set -b to 132.180.60.3 if possible, or look at your machine's IP Configuration in /etc/hosts and remove this switch alltogether..
