There are two totally different setups 123.123.123.123 is the dummy ip for a server that runs on a global ip address 192.168.1.123 is the private ip address of a server sitting behind the unspecified ip address of the firewall If the client accesses a url of https://456.456.456.456:8443/myapp/mySoapService?wsdl they the wsdl should list the location as <soap:address location='https://456.456.456.456:8443/myapp/mySoapService'/> ideally it should be HTTP 1.1 compliant, so rather than use a hard coded hostname or ${jboss.bind.address} it builds the url based on the url used for the wsdl request (which is just as simple as stripping the ?wsdl from the end) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4188551#...
