OK, so sorry to be posting 8000 messages, but I solved my problem, and I believe that 
it was the result of a bug in JBoss that I was thankfully able to workaroud.

In org.jboss.web.WebService there is a method:


  | protected void startService() throws Exception
  |    {
  |       // Host must be set to continue (either by user or detection)
  |       String address = getHost();
  |       if (address == null)
  |          throw new MissingAttributeException("Host");
  | 
  |       // Start the WebServer running
  |       server.start();
  |       log.info("Started WebServer with address: " + server.getBindAddress() + ":" 
+ getPort());
  | 
  |       // Set the rmi codebase if it is not already set
  |       String codebase = System.getProperty("java.rmi.server.codebase");
  |       if (codebase == null)
  |       {
  |          address = ServerConfigUtil.fixRemoteAddress(address);
  | 
  |          codebase = "http://"; + address + ":" + getPort() + "/";
  |          System.setProperty("java.rmi.server.codebase", codebase);
  |       }
  |       log.info("Using RMI server codebase: " + codebase);
  |    }
  | 

What happens is that if you do not set the system property in question, it uses your 
configured host (which, by default is jboss.bind.hostname system property).  That is 
reasonable and correct.

THEN, it puts the address through ServerConfigUtil.fixRemoteAddress, which turns your 
host address into a servername.  This, IMHO, is incorrect behavior.  At least, it 
seems incorrect when you've specified the jboss.bind.address to be something other 
than the default.  Names are for humans.  Numbers are for machines.  The number is 
always correct, wheras the name is dependant on the DNS server and client 
configuration, and introducing this dependancy by default seems wrong.  Maybe this is 
addressed in a later version, but FYI, the solution was to set

java.rmi.server.codebase=http://my_ip_address:8083/

in my SystemPropertiesService MBean.

If there's a bug tracker for JBoss, I'll submit this if anyone agrees with me.
