Hi Jerry
Your exception below looks similar to one I came across in the last day
and resolved.
# using the command ./james-cli.sh -h <private ip> -p 9999 listusers
Error connecting to remote JMX agent!
java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: <public ip>;
nested exception is:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out
at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPEndpoint.newSocket(TCPEndpoint.java:619)

sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPChannel.createConnection(TCPChannel.java:216)

The issue ended up being nothing to do with james, the RMI registry was
doing a lookup on the machines hostname to determine the IP to advertise
for connecting to the JMX server.
To resolve this all I needed to do was make the hostname of the machine
resolve to the private ip of the server (on the server itself) and not
the public (since the public ip doesn't allow JMX connections coming
in). Then a restart of james picked up the new IP and all resolved...
real head spinner tho as it took quite some time to realise just what
was going on.
Hope this helps in your investigation. Feel free to ask for more detail
as I know I haven't gone into specifics here.
Thanks
Phillip

After a very long day, I got James 3 installed and almost up and
running. IMAP is working and the database tables were created, etc.
But I can't get anything to work on SMTP. With default log levels, i
got these log entries:
INFO 21:12:13,150 | james.smtpserver | Id='9288089' User=''
Connection established from 99.55.143.34

Connection closed for 99.55.143.34
I turned on debug level in all of the logs. And it showed an exception
stack dump as well:
java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 64.34.163.186;

I have reviewed all of my configuration settings. I'm sure I'm doing
something wrong. But this exception message tells me very little
other than it is refused. I'm pretty sure it's not a firewall
issue. I can get through to port 25 as indicated that log entries
appear. It fails when running telnet from my local client as well as
running telnet on the server. And since it appears to be at the TCPIP
connection level, I don't think it has anything to do with SMTP
authorization.
I had an earlier post about mixing v2 and v3 instances on the same
server. I am doing that. But v2 is configured to listen only on one
IP address, and v3 is configured to listen on a separate IP address
(as far as I can tell...) v2 is still running fine. I've checked to
configurations of both. But that doesn't mean I didn't miss something.
Can someone explain the problem or give me something else i can look
at that might indicate the problem?
Thanks.
Jerry
