Where are my ports????

I used a very simple program
------
import javax.comm.*;
import java.util.*;

public class PortLister {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Enumeration e = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();
    while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
      System.out.println((CommPortIdentifier) e.nextElement());
    }
  }
}
------

It should report my ports on my computer, right?
compiling goes ok... Running also ok but the program does not go in the
while loop.
If i add this
 Enumeration e = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();
 System.out.println((CommPortIdentifier) e.nextElement());
 System.out.println(e);
 System.out.println(CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers());

I get

null              (means i don't have ports? why not?)
javax.comm.CommPortEnumerator@129206 (an addres?)
javax.comm.CommPortEnumerator@30f13d  (an addres?)

Do you know what i am doing wrong?
