无法在Java RMI中连接两个远程主机

Question

My server's code looks like:

Registry r = java.rmi.registry.LocateRegistry.createRegistry(1399);
r.rebind("Chat", new IRC());

and my client's code is

IRCInterface remoteObject = (IRCInterface) Naming.lookup("rmi://localhost:1399/Chat");
String history = remoteObject.read();

on the localhost it works correctly, but I can't connect two remote computers (hosts). I've turned off all firewalls.

What's wrong?

The console outputs:

Error: java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: 150.254.79.20; nested exception is: 
java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect

Answer 1

Naming.lookup("rmi://localhost:1399/Chat");

localhost in above lookup should be replaced with remotehost IP (or) machine name. Otherwise lookup happens on only local machine.
