I added two system properties that will allow you to reconfigure the server and registry ports for the remote poller RMI to avoid conflicts. The properties can be configured inside opennms.properties. Here are the relevent lines which also show the default values:

Marking as fixed. commit dce97d258e1ff81fe6bb71ddef3ef9b1c98916f7

You can change the RMI IP address that OpenNMS RMI service binds. What we really need is a property to enable/disable the RMI service (should be disabled by default now that we have HTTP base Remoting)..
