      Hi,

      I am trying to connect to a remote JMS queue from my JBoss Server 4.0.3SP1 and using JBossMQ. The other server also hosts JBossMQ.

      The machines involved and their IPs are as below:

      The client Machine:
      Name: XYZ
      Config: JBoss Server 4.0.3SP1
      Network IP: 122.xx.xx.xx {Say Network MC)

      The host machine:
      Name: ABC
      JBoss Server 4.0.2
      Network IP: 60.23.xx.xx {Say Network JS}
      JMS Config: JBossMQ and is configured with HAJNDI on port 1100

      Connection from Machine ABC to XYZ:

      Method: VPN
      Host IP: 122.xx.xx.xx {Network MC}
      NAT'ed IP: 172.xx.xx.xxx {NATIP}, this IP has port mapping to
      Final Destination IP 60.23.xx.xx {Network JS}
      Ports Mapped: 1100 and 1099,

      I can ping,telnet and access Network JS from Network MC through NATIP

      Remote host hajndi-jms-ds.xml file

       <mbean code="org.jboss.jms.jndi.JMSProviderLoader"

      I have made various attempts to connect to remote JNDI using the configurations below

      Trial 1 JMS Provider on port 1100

      jms-ds.xml 

      <mbean code="org.jboss.jms.jndi.JMSProviderLoader" name="jboss.mq:service=JMSProviderLoader,name=RemoteJMSProvider,server=RemoteSite">

</tx-connection-factory>


      Java Code: (Standalone Java Client) 

      properties.put("java.naming.factory.initial","org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
properties.put("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs","org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
properties.put("java.naming.provider.url","jnp://localhost:1099");
initialContext = new InitialContext(properties);

queueConFac = (QueueConnectionFactory) initialContext.lookup("JSTJmsXA");


      Result: 

      javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: JSTJmsXA not bound

      Trial 2 External Context on port 1100
