In cases were the Java RMI client is running behind a proxy server,
which allows only communication through port 80, ie. allows only http
packets, your rmi packets won't go through. In that case you need to
package your RMI-JRMP packets as http packets and on the server convert
http to jrmp. This is called http tunneling(tunneling rmi packet thru
http).
If you use an application server they provide you with the necessary
classes to do this.
I have used weblogic and they provide that functionality. It's slow but
useful in a proxy server situation.
