This is a really nice test. In particular, it fills a gap between unit tests and the integration tests in server-unit, providing full server tests, including codecs. The tests I added for Kerberos tested at the IoHandler level and thus did not test the codecs. I will start to use something more like what Stefan worked out for the other protocols. One issue, because this came up earlier this summer, is that when you get the loopback address, the best practice is to use 'null' as the hostname. 'null' will explicitly return the loopback address and avoid any issues with misconfigured hosts files that could cause the tests to fail. I've tested this on Sun and IBM and it should work given a read of Harmony source. >From the javadocs: "If the host is null then an InetAddress representing an address of the loopback interface is returned.
