title: Glassfish 3 stand-alone client hangs during ejb lookup
body: <p>Per this guide <a href="http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18930_01/html/821-2418/gkusn.html#gkusp" rel="nofollow">http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18930_01/html/821-2418/gkusn.html#gkusp</a> I am trying to access an ejb component from a remote stand-alone client.  When executing my remote client, I have the gf-client.jar on the classpath, and included the jvm properties </p>
  
  <pre><code>-Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost=&lt;remoteHost&gt;
  -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort=3700
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when my code does the lookup of the bean, it hangs, no exceptions thrown.  On the remote machine running Glassfish, I can do a netstat and see an established connection from my client machine to port 3700.  Any ideas on how to fix this?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:
  Not sure where the exception was being swallowed, but I was able to run it in my IDE and I get this exception thrown on the lookup, after which the client hangs.</p>
