Spring 3.0 jmx on WL 10.3.3: JConsole connects locally, but not remotely

Question

I have a Spring 3.0 app running on WebLogic 10.3.3. It registers a Spring bean with JMX. When I run it locally on my laptop, JConsole can connect "locally" and view and manipulate the JMX bean.
When I deploy the same EAR to WL 10.3.3 on a Solaris/X86 VM, I'm unable to connect with a "remote" connection from JConsole. In the "Remote Process" field, I entered "IP:port", where IP is the IP address of the VM, and port is the listen port of the managed server. I also tried the port of the admin server, but both eventually fail with an EOFException.
Is there something I need to configure to get this working?

David,
Just to verify, are you running JConsole as the following options (I have had issues in the past just running JConsole.exe without these)
C:\>jconsole -J-Djava.class.path=C:/opt/wls1031_l16/jdk160_11/lib/jconsole.jar;C:/opt/wls1031_l16/jdk160_11/l
ib/tools.jar;C:/opt/wls1031_l16/wlserver_10.3/server/lib/wljmxclient.jar -J-Djmx.remote.protocol.provider.pkgs=weblogic.management.remote -J-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
And are you using either of the following methods to connect
service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/iiop://127.0.0.1:7001/weblogic.management.mbeanservers.runtime
or
service:jmx:t3://127.0.0.1:7001/jndi/weblogic.management.mbeanservers.runtime
username/password = weblogic console username/password
Alternatively have you tried JRMC.exe JRockit Mission Control?
There are instructions on the following wiki to connect to WebLogic MBeans via either JConsole or JRMC viewers.
