My airport is turned on. Right now I am posting to this forum via my airport connection.
I noticed something else that might be related or might not. When I started the server instance one time asadmin reported the following:
"[service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://ALall17.local:8686/jmxrmi] for domain management purposes."
ALall17 is my computer name, but I dont know why ALall17.local would be different from localhost.
When I ping ALall17 I get the following IP address 169.254.69.161 which is actually DIFFERENT from the one in the server log that JMX tries to connect to (169.254.203.185)
In any case, I tried replacing all instances of ALall17.local in my glassfish install (it showed up once in domain.xml, and in sun-acc.xml and registry.xml) with 127.0.0.1, however nothing different happened.
For now the best solution has been to disable JMX.
