Hi, I am new to RMI and just playing around with a toy example, but I am having problems! So wondering if anyone can steer me in the right direction?
I am following an example from the book
Core Java, Vol. 2: Advanced Features 8th Edition (page 849)
http://www.amazon.com/Core-Java-Vol-Advanced-Features/dp/0132354799/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1298533409&sr=8-1
The code is quite simple, I am just trying to start up the server, here's the code:
But when I try this, I get the error below. I have turned off Windows firewall. I understand when you don't specify a URL or port that the localhost will be used and port 1099 - I've checked that port 1099 is not in use, and my IP address is indeed 172.16.160.17 as per the error message. So I'm a bit unsure of how to resolve this issue. Any ideas?
