Hello,
im using jboss 3.2.5 on suse 9.1 and successfully deployed several cmp entity beans and one session bean on the server. now im trying to get a test client running. but when im looking up the ejb (doesnt matter what kind of ejb) the lookup hangs indefinetily without producing any kind of error. i used ethereal to watch network traffic and the client is starting to communicate with port 1099 but after a few packets the server sends FIN,ACK but the client is still doing nothing.
thats the code i used in the client (partial of it):
 public void initialize() {
 long startTime = 0;
 if (logging) {
 log("Initializing bean access.");
 startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
 }
 try {
 //get naming context
 Context context = getInitialContext();
 //look up jndi name
 Object ref = context.lookup("CostcenterRemote");
 //look up jndi name and cast to Home interface
 costcenterRemoteHome = (CostcenterRemoteHome) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(ref, CostcenterRemoteHome.class);
 if (logging) {
 long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
 log("Succeeded initializing bean access through Home interface.");
 log("Execution time: " + (endTime - startTime) + " ms.");
 }
 }
 catch(Exception e) {
 if (logging) {
 log("Failed initializing bean access.");
 }
 e.printStackTrace();
 }
 }
 private Context getInitialContext() throws NamingException {
 Hashtable environment = new Hashtable();
 environment.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
 environment.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
 environment.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://localhost:1099");
 return new InitialContext(environment);
 }
