You can specify the port and host with the start up script which is useful for connecting to different hosts and for running over SSL. Consider the following, $ rhq-cli.sh -u rhqadmin -p rhqadmin -s localhost --port=7443 The above will log me into the server running on localhost and will communications will be over SSL. If however, I leave out the host (-s) option, the port is ignored and the default (7080) is used. This needs to be modified so that the port is not ignored even when the host is not specified.
