Strange RMI ConnectException

[rosund2]

I am trying to connect to a remote RMI service exported as
<bean class="org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiService Exporter">
<property name="serviceName" value="Service"/>
<property name="service" ref="service"/>
<property name="serviceInterface" value="no.lyse.tele.transit.app.remote.service.Ser vice"/>
<property name="registryPort" value="1199"/>
</bean>

The kcient application is on another host. And is configured like this.
<bean id="testService" class="org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiProxyFa ctoryBean">
<property name="serviceUrl" value="rmi://192.168.21.45:1199/Service"/>
<property name="serviceInterface" value="no.lyse.tele.transit.app.remote.service.Ser vice"/>
</bean>

When i tested this service on the same host ( not via localhost ) it worked fine. But when they are are on different servers i get this strange exception.

Were does the 127.0.0.1 come from. As you see i am trying to access a server on the network.

Found the problem. -Djava.rmi.server.hostname must be specified when the server is started. Although it is somewhat strange since the registry is bound to *.1199 according to netstat. I wonder how you could bind it to multiple interfaces ?
