I'm writing a big application that I divide into 2 processes (server

I would like to limit the access to the server only from the interface
process and also only from the local machine.
Is there a way to limit RMI to localhost only?
I cannot block all sockets outside the machine since I use them in the
server process.
Simply block the RMI port with the firewall from non-localhost access. You'll have to look the port up, I don't remember which one it is off the top of my head. It'll be a different port than the ones you expose "in the server process".
This is an OS-specific operation, but most Windows "personal firewall" products and any Linuxen have the capability.
