I dont believe there is a way to set this system wide, it is a per VM
setting. As alluded to in another thread, in your case, this is a
workaround. It will cease to work if and when your IP address changes.
According to
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/rmi/javarmiproperties.html
you can force the RMI runtime to use the host name through the
java.rmi.server.useLocalHostname property, but I suspect that since name
resolution does not seem to be set up correctly on your hosts, that this
will not work either.
So if you intend on making this work in general, please make sure that
your Linux hosts are set up to resolve their host names correctly.
