The HornetQ server? Through the API only. You can define a variable like you had before and pass it with -D on startup
Working on an applicaton of which JBoss is a component so static IP is not an option. Luckily the JBoss team difined a hostname property in the dev cycle of 6.

This finally did it for us:
<connectors>
<connector name="netty">
<factory-class>org.hornetq.core.remoting.impl.netty.NettyConnectorFactory</factory-class>
<param key="host" value="${jboss.host.name:localhost}"/>
<param key="port" value="${hornetq.remoting.netty.port:5445}"/>
</connector>
<connector name="netty-throughput">
<factory-class>org.hornetq.core.remoting.impl.netty.NettyConnectorFactory</factory-class>
<param key="host" value="${jboss.host.name:localhost}"/>
<param key="port" value="${hornetq.remoting.netty.batch.port:5455}"/>
<param key="batch-delay" value="50"/>
</connector>
<connector name="in-vm">

</connector>

If I understand what's going on here. With the connectors you configure the configuration remote clients get via JNDI.
