When a remote client Java program performs a new initialContext() call,
it creates a client side ORB instance. This in turn creates a socket
connection to the GlassFish Server IIOP port (default 3700). Check the
socket connection state on your client machine, using a program like
"netstat". Active connection will have "ESTABLISHED" state.
For example:
$ netstat -an | grep 3700
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address
State
tcp6 0 0 127.0.0.1:50576 127.0.1.1*:3700
* ESTABLISHED
Similarly, on the machine running GlassFish server, only a Listener is
present when no ORB client is connected.
$ netstat -an | grep 3700
tcp6 0 0 :::3700 :::* LISTEN
When the client connects, a socket connection is established:
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address
State
tcp6 0 0 127.0.1.1:*3700 *
127.0.0.1:50576 ESTABLISHED
Harshad.
