Is specifying rmi .server.codebase mandatory when bind/rebind?

[Vishal Saxena]

My understanding is that it is.
Dynamic downloading of classes is a choice, but when bind/rebind rmi.server.codebase is to be set.
I verified this - took this property off and exceptions were thrown. There are reasons why it should be like that, but still I have a feeling that if not specified when bind/rebind, the classpath should be considered as codebase.

Using the CLASSPATH works just fine. Make sure the rmiregistry has access to the CLASSPATH when you start it.
