Are you using RJMXRI implementation and you want to plugin MX4J's ?

Have you already tried to specify 

System.setProperty(JMXConnectorFactory.PROTOCOL_PROVIDER_PACKAGES, "mx4j.remote.provider|mx4j.tools.remote.provider"); ?

That should tell the factory to use MX4J's classes.

This is a RJMXRI message...

Can you post the URL as well ?
