Hi gurus,

all of us here have been racking our brains trying to figure out this error.



we have a rmi client connecting to a linux box running the rmi server. when the server class is executed on the linux box, it says that it has created a new rmi registry is on port 1099. But when i execute the client from a win2k or NT machine it refuses a connection.




new rmi registry is on port 1099
bound to new rmi registry
registered server




when i try to connect from a local machine this is the error i get

i have security policy files running on both the machines that run the client and the server also grant full access.



Is there anything more i can try to get this working, its really irritating.
