[RMI] Naming.lookup freezes

[=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Richard_K=F6rber?=]

Hi!

I am stuck with an issue with RMI and rmiregistry. Everything is working
fine all day long. But when I keep the computer with the rmiregistry
("Server") running 24/7, and then try to connect to it next day, my
client freezes at Naming.lookup():

The rmiregistry port responses to a telnet connection, though, so the
registry seems to be up and running. The server application is running
as well, at least I get periodical log messages from one of my threads.

I need to restart the rmiregistry and the server application, in order
to get it work for another day. That's not quite what I am expecting.

Anybody has any idea why Naming.lookup() freezes?

I am using Sun's J2SE (build 1.4.2_04-b05) for Linux, both on client and
server.

Thanks in advance!
