title: RMI RemoteException
body: <p>Any idea why do I get RemoteException while trying to invoke methods on Unix machine from Windows?<br>
  I am inside the network and don't think this is because of firewall problem as I can do "telnet" from Windows to Unix box after starting the RMI server at the unix box. I also could not understand why is it going to local loopback IP?</p>
  
  <p>Stack Trace:</p>
  
  <pre><code>RemoteException occured, details java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 127.0.0.1; nested exception is: 
      java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
  java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 127.0.0.1; nested exception is: 
      java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Many thanks in advance.</p>
