I'm running a very similar environment to you (JBoss 3.2.5, Fedora Core 4, Eclipse 3.1 M6, Java 1.4.2_08) and I was running into the same exception while starting up JBoss. It turns out that java was unable to make connections to localhost because I had security-enabled Linux (aka SELinux) turned on. To disable it, I modified /etc/sysconfig/selinux to set the SELINUX property to "disabled". Now I'm having no problems with JBoss connecting to port 1099.

Note, however, that I'm on a dev box -- If I wasn't I'd probably strive to keep SELinux turned on and instead enabled /usr/java/jdk1.4.2_08/bin/java to make socket connections. The Fedora SELinux FAQ (http:--fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc3/) explains how to do that.
