> When org.jboss.remoting.Client.addListener() creates a callback org.jboss.remoting.transport.Connector, by default it calls InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress() to get a local address for the callback org.jboss.remoting.InvokerLocator.  If the machine happens to have multiple addresses, getLocalHost() might return the wrong one.  A solution, due to Ovidiu Feodorov, is to implement an internal invocation to which the server replies by returning the remote address of the connection over which the invocation was made.
> This solution has been implemented for the socket transport (and bisocket, by inheritance) in conjunction with JBREM-781.  It should be implemented for the other transports.
