Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Samuel Terrell (j3110) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Server IP detection causes problems Initial Comment: By default, on some Linux distributions, for performance and other reasons (some interfaces have dynamic IP's but the hosts ip shouldn't change), the host name of the local machine is configured to point to 127.0.0.1. When connecting through JNDI from a remote machine, the IP set in jndi.properties is overwritten with 127.0.0.1 on the client side. Obviously, this causes the client to fail connecting to the server. Other servers, Apache for example, warn the user that this is probably undesired behavior and allow a way to manually override the local IP with an option in the configuration files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Joao Pedro Clemente (jpcl) Date: 2002-06-18 20:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=169196 For what I've read from other J2EE platform manuals, I guess this happens 'cause of misuse of IP address. I'm not sure if I understood the failure cenario completely, but it seems that this would not happen if the client would use the server name instead of ip address. This is similar to some failures that happen when using a http proxy server that badly resolve dns names, if I'm not mistaken. Is it really necessary that the server sends the IP address to the client? Are you sure this is not a problem of your machines network configuration? Maybe you could give more details on your setup/machine configuration? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=376685&aid=569305&group_id=22866 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bringing you mounds of caffeinated joy >>> http://thinkgeek.com/sf <<< _______________________________________________ Jboss-development mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-development
