Hi Felix,
Thanks for looking into this.
> Do you start server and client on different machines?
Yes, they are on different VMs.
> What OS and Java version are you using?
OS - CentOS 7.3, Kernel - 3.10.0-693.21.1.el7.x86_64, Java - OpenJDK 1.8.0_171
(JRE)
> To which address does your hostname (on client and server) resolve?
This should not matter because I pass -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=x.x.x.164
switch.
nslookup on both VMs resolves client's hostname to the same IP x.x.x.164
I am using a static port because of firewall rules. Port 50100 is the only one
allowed for result reporting (connections initiated from the server to the
client).
If I switch to random port (=0), the client starts to listen on three ports.
I'm not sure why, I expect it to listen on one port only.

When Secure RMI is disabled, Java is listening on one port only (there are no
log messages like SSLRMIServerSocketFactory but 'netstat -anp | grep java'
shows one listening port).
Does anybody know why Secure RMI needs three ports and insecure one needs only
one?

Do you start server and client on different machines?
What OS and Java version are you using?
To which address does your hostname (on client and server) resolve?
On my machine (server) jmeter prints out the following messages to the
console:
./jmeter-server -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=192.168.1.24
Created remote object: UnicastServerRef2 [liveRef:

trustStoreLocation=rmi_keystore.jks, type=JKS,
alias=rmi),SSLRMIClientSocketFactory(keyStoreLocation=rmi_keystore.jks,
