As I understand it, this is handled by the lower layers of RMI at this point using IIOP-HTTP. I would suggest joining the RMI-INTEREST group on this same server, as you are more likely to get informed advice on RMI.

My application needs to implement callbacks for web browsers behind firewalls. The only way I know this can be done (without polling) is to use RMI. I remember reading in Java Servlet Programming (1st Edition) about doing this on Port 80 with RMI -- there were foot notes referencing some javatips on www.javaworld.com <http://www.javaworld.com> . Unfortunately, I don't have my first edition any more! I'm looking thru the second edition of Java Servlet Programming by Jason Hunter and I cannot find find any references to using Port 80. Does Java RMI with Applet/Servlet connections still use port 80? If I install http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/ on IE, can I do RMI call backs? thanks, Siegfried ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
