I see open ports to 127.2.0.1:9012 whenever I have rmiBindAddress set and
applied patch in JmxRemoteLifecycleListener to use rmiBindAddress instead
of localhost around line 304, otherwise I get exception whenever I use
rmiBindAddress=127.2.0.1 and no ports are open.

Netstat with patch and rmiBindAddress=127.0.2.1 and useLocalPorts=false:
 TCP       127.0.2.1:9012         XXX:0            LISTENING
 TCP       127.0.2.1:9013         XXX:0            LISTENING

Netstat with patch and rmiBindAddress=127.0.2.1 and useLocalPorts=true:

 TCP       127.0.2.1:9012         XXX:0            LISTENING
 TCP       127.0.2.1:9013         XXX:0            LISTENING


Seems that it connects differently because I see it using localhost for
connections to port 9013 and 127.0.2.1 for  9012 (remote address in netstat)

Yes, it is a startup of Tomcat itself, not my J2EE application. You can try
it yourself. Stack is as follows:

I have all commented out in hosts file (win32):

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1       localhost
# ::1             localhost


As far as I remember my previous attempts, when I set useLocalPorts = true
I can access same process using 127.2.0.1:9012 and localhost:9012,
otherwise, only second method works.

Setting this to true seems to only affect server not registry (see netstat
at the top).

I did some patching replacing localhost with rmiBindAddress around line 304
and now Tomcat itself initializes correctly, our beans gets registered but
our connection from separate process fails with NameNotFoundException:
jmxrmi. Seems connection is established but beans are registered somewhere
else? We are using ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer() to register
our beans.
