How to configure URI given to network connected broker...

... for its connection back to the originating broker when using multicast discovery?

I keep running into problems when the discovered broker attempts to connect back to the originating broker using a domain-name that the discovered broker can not resolve properly.  In some cases I can set -Djava.rmi.server.hostname on the originating broker to fix this, though I couldn't get that to function on an Ubuntu 11.04 using OpenJDK, no clue why.

It would almost be better if it simply used the discovered brokers IP address and/or as part of discovery included all of the addresses/domain-names it was listening for connections on so that the discovered broker could give others a try if the preferred address failed... er something.

Or, and I have no idea how/if this would work, there was a way to effectively use duplex connections with multicast discovery.  Then only the originating broker would need to make a connection, removing issues with figuring out what the right domain-name/address would be for the discovered broker to connect back to?  Is that even possible with discovery?  Or would that effectively create 2 separate channels for messages to flow on between 2 connected brokers?
