I've noticed that on my companies linux machines (which are using debian sarge linux dist.), using the hostname does not work here. You need the IP address, otherwise it resolves to the loopback address and remote connections do not work. The only solution we could get to work was using the -b option followed by the machine's ip address. Meanwhile, on my home setup (which uses ubuntu linux) the hostname resolves just fine to the actual IP address of the machine with out needing to specify the IP address anyhwere in the config or startup.
Another difference that I noticed was that when things worked without specifying the ip address the following code would result in the actuall ip address of the machine: System.out.println(InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress()); while on the machines where the hostname would not resolve properly the above code would result in the loopback address being returned. This points to it being either a java security issue as noted in the java docs fot InetAddress.getLocalHost (although the java security settings for both of the different types of linux that I tested on appeared to be the same, yet with different localhost ip resolution results) or a machine setup issue or a difference in the Unix/Linux flavors being used.
