We have a JBoss server that not bound 1099 port for RMI service The server register was modified much earlier according to this KB (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812873 ) to reserve port 1098 and 1099 for for JVM Bind. But why the port 1099 is still being use by other process or program despite with the KB812873 applied? Need advise...thanks! System info as follow:- Server OS : Windows 2003 SP2 Enterprise 64 bits JBOSS version : jboss-4.2.2.GA julisanto

Hi, What is the program or process? Does the program or process specifically request 1099 port?

Hi Dale, We need RMI services for JVM Bind. The RMI Registry runs on each machine that hosts remote service objects and accepts queries for services, by default on port 1099. Hence based on KB 812873 we reserve port 1099, however it still use by another program. Not sure where goes wrong, everything is done as per KB812873 article. could you advise? julisanto

Please use the following command to list which ports are in use and the process number of the process using the port: netstat –a –n –o Based on my research, you may need to edit the jboss-service.xml file to change the port. You could refer to the following similar issue: Port 1098 is taken http://community.jboss.org/thread/120633 BTW, as the problem is caused by JBOSS, please post in JBOSS forums for solution as well.
