Thanks again Wolf-Dieter for your suggestion, I'll do it first thing tomorrow! Just wanted to correct my previous post, the header is in plain text, the rest of the communication is encrypted... this is between server and client collocated on the same host. I'll give it a go tomorrow with ejb-client approach as you suggested!

Dear Wolf-Dieter, Thorben and Xiang,

Finally got the remote connection working where the client and server are on different hosts for the tutorial http://middlewaremagic.com/jboss/?p=2176, however still don't get why it was working when client and server are on the same host?!? My EJB lookup is working, thanks to Xiang posted tutorial links and ejb-client lookup approach suggested by Wolf and Thorben

Properties p = new Properties();

  p.put("remote.connectionprovider.create.options.org.xnio.Options.SSL_ENABLED", "true");

  p.put("remote.connections", "default");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.host", "remote_ip");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.port", "4447");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.username", "ejbUser");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.password", "ejbPassword");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_POLICY_NOANONYMOUS", "false");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_DISALLOWED_MECHANISMS", "JBOSS-LOCAL-USER");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_POLICY_NOPLAINTEXT", "false");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SSL_STARTTLS", "true");

  p.put("remote.connection.default.connect.timeout", "30000");

  EJBClientConfiguration cc = new PropertiesBasedEJBClientConfiguration(p);

  ContextSelector<EJBClientContext> selector = new ConfigBasedEJBClientContextSelector(cc);

  EJBClientContext.setSelector(selector);

  Properties props = new Properties();

  props.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.ejb.client.naming");

  context = new InitialContext(props);

  CallerRemote securedRemoteSession = (CallerRemote) context.lookup("ejb:/remoteEJB//CallerBean!remote.CallerRemote");

Thanks guys you're the best!
