If I do bind to host I notice that during startup the bisocker connector sets it self up using the ipaddress and a random port 12:15:14,053 INFO  [ConnectionFactory] Connector bisocket://172.18.128.194:46844 has leasing enabled, lease period 10000 milliseconds 12:15:14,053 INFO  [ConnectionFactory] org.jboss.jms.server.connectionfactory.ConnectionFactory@fc9d2b started 12:15:14,066 INFO  [ConnectionFactory] Connector bisocket://172.18.128.194:46844 has leasing enabled, lease period 10000 milliseconds 12:15:14,066 INFO  [ConnectionFactory] org.jboss.jms.server.connectionfactory.ConnectionFactory@57f57f started 12:15:14,067 INFO  [ConnectionFactory] Connector bisocket://172.18.128.194:46844 has leasing enabled, lease period 10000 milliseconds If I bind to ipaddress It binds to ipaddress on the expected port. What I want to do is bind to a hostname and the correct socket enableing my client to connect back via name and via the predefined ports we have opened in the firewall. If someone can tell me how these value are gererated I can alter the server config to match what I want. I have other servers setup that work as expected, the server at fault is in a different organisation so I need to give them guidlines on what needs to be changed. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/573011#573011] Start a new discussion in JBoss Remoting at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
