Sounds like you're exporting an RMI URL with //localhost (127.0.0.1) from
one machine. If you're constructing the RMI URL by invoking the InetAddress
getLocalHost() method, that may be returning the loop-back interface
address. I thought this problem was solved with the latest JDK, but
you can work around it, by changing the order in which the IP addresses
are defined in /etc/hosts (move your eth0 name/IP address first).
