[ https://jira.terracotta.org/jira//browse/CDV-354?page=comments#action_22321 ] Taylor Gautier commented on CDV-354: ------------------------------------
According to Gary, the RMI server that we start /correctly/ uses the hostname configured for the machine. Unfortunately, a good portion of the world does not have their hostname correctly configured and this is the root cause of the problem. Our old mechanism which was in place before we added authentication (which required the use of the RMI server) seemed to not have these issues, since it used a slightly different mechanism for opening the port (we have no choice of how the RMI server opens the port - we just get to tell it the port and that is it). Therefore, Gary suggests using the old mechanism when no authentication has been specified, so the common case will work in variety of correctly and/or incorrectly configured machines. The (slightly more uncommon) case of using authentication will require the machine to be configured correctly, but that is a reasonable restriction given the nature of enabling authentication for a given host. Assigning to Gary to enable the fix. > JMX port not available remotely? > -------------------------------- > > Key: CDV-354 > URL: https://jira.terracotta.org/jira//browse/CDV-354 > Project: Community Development > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Taylor Gautier > Assigned To: Taylor Gautier > > This is the second time on the forums someone has reported problems > connecting the admin console remotely. > ---------------------------- > I'm having a problem connecting remotely to the Terracotta servers with the > Admin Console...
