First, something weird happened to my company, and this
mail wil probably not reach the list, so, I try.
Well, here we go,
Rmi is NOT a TCP protocol as is. It is a subprotocol that
is similar to FTP. The two RMI ports are dealing a
transaction on the standard RMI port, and then,
there is a dynamic port negociation. There is no way to
make RMI load balanced, as well as there is no way to make
it go through a firewall...
If you look at google:RMI+Firewal, you will find relevant
documents about port negociation and all the (bad) ways to
handle this (bad) idea that is RMI.
