I did not modify my security policy. Since I sent my last message, I've also found another trick for remote hosts on RH Linux boxes (and I think other *nix boxes).
Make sure you remove the host name aliase from the 127.0.0.1 address in the hosts file. RMI is very name aware, so having the host name resolve to the proper IP address is very important. I think I found it on an earlier posting in this forum, but it was very late, so I don't recall. --- "Michael C.
