Description Markus Kuppe CLA 2010-10-24 04:46:42 EDT
The generic providers selects "localhost" as the default hostname if not given explicitly. This fails for scenarios where services are to be remoted across different machines. Thus the default should be changed to use InetAddress.getLocalHost().getCanonicalHostName().
