Soln: Use the RMI itself to implement an authentication protocol yourself
ie get your clients to use a username and password if possible. The server
verifies the username and password. In any case why would want to restrict
the service just by machine name (host)? Far better to use a proper
authentication.

Hello!
I am working on a project which uses RMI. I wrote a server which runs
very well. I problem I got is that every client is allowed to connect to
my server and call the remote methode. What I want is, that only hosts
who are allowed to make a remote call can connect to my server. How can
I get there. I have really no idea...
Any help is welcome...
Greetings Jan Suchanek
