Calling Clustered EJB2 on JBoss EAP 4.x from EAP 5.x via RMI?

Issue

• We Added: -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy=$JBOSS_HOME/bin/java.policy to JAVA_OPTS in $JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.conf to our JBoss EAP configuration

• Created file: $JBOSS_HOME/bin/java.policy containing:

            grant
            {
              permission java.security.AllPermission;
            };
  

• When JBoss EAP 5.1.0 (JDK 1.6.0_22) calls JBoss EAP 4.3.0 (JDK 1.5.0_11) via RMI (unified invoker), we get this exception:
