not IP address

                 Key: OPENEJB-607
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENEJB-607
             Project: OpenEJB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: connectors, server
    Affects Versions: 3.0
            Reporter: Jacek Laskowski
            Assignee: Jacek Laskowski
            Priority: Critical


When a remote client accesses OpenEJB (and Geronimo) and uses hostname, e.g. 
localhost not IP address the following exception is thrown:

WARNING: Cannot access server(s): null:-1 Exception: 
java.io.IOException: Cannot access server: null:-1 due to an unkown exception 
in the OpenEJB client: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException : port out of range:-1

        at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(InitialContext.java:351)
        at remote.MEJBClient.main(MEJBClient.java:20)

The properties in question are:

        props.put(InitialContext.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, 
"org.apache.openejb.client.RemoteInitialContextFactory");
        props.put(InitialContext.PROVIDER_URL, "localhost:4201");

Change localhost to 127.0.0.1 and it'll work fine.
