RMI has to be working for some cases at least, because it's used heavily
by JBoss, which works on both -CURRENT and -STABLE (for some definition
of works).

Sounds like a "network problem", which I realize doesn't help you very
much.  If you can find out what TCP port on what host it's trying to
communicate with, you have a chance.

The first thing I always do in these situations is rule out IPv6.  If
you don't use it, turn it off to rule it out.
