The rmi registry is another server running on the remote machine - all RMI servers can register names with an object by calling the rebind method.
|
|
The name given to rebind should be a string of the form: Naming.rebind("//osprey7:1099/HelloServer", obj); where the machine name can default to the current host the port number can default to the default registry port, 1099
|
|
For large distributed applications using RMI, a design goal is to minimize the number of names in the registry. The client can obtain the name of one remote object from the registry, and other remote objects from that rmi server can be returned as values to the client. This is called "bootstrapping".

Example call to rebind for the main method in HelloImpl: Naming.rebind("HelloServer", obj);
