remote debugging Linux/Maven2 with IDEA

Hi,
I'm having an issue trying to run remote debugging on my maven component.
I have setup the proper MAVEN_OPTS and I run IDEA as remote debug.

This runs fine on my Windows machine but it does not stop on breakpoints on Linux. It might be because the test phase in Maven is forked to another VM.

Did anyone hit this issue and can share the solution (it might be something with /etc/hosts, but I'm not sure).

Thanks,
Erez.
