jmx-dev RFR 8057134: sun/management/jmxremote/startstop/JMXStartStopTest.java failing intermittently

[Daniel Fuchs]

Hi Jaroslav,

- import java.net.ConnectException;

java.net.ConnectException is not a RemoteException, but
java.rmi.ConnectException is.

I wonder whether the connect code may throw java.net.ConnectException,
or whether the test was wrong in the first place.

If the java.net.ConnectException may be thrown then replacing
it with RemoteException will probably cause new failures.

best regards,

-- daniel
