RMI binding clarification needed

[Chiru babu]

Hi,
somebody help me by clarifing me on RMI binding.
on Machine "A" i bind my dataServer with following URL
rmi://localhost:1099/dataServer
And when client program tries to access the server with URL
rmi://<ip of machine A>:1099/dataServer
I'm getting a NotBoundException.

And when i bind my server with its ip address
(ie) with the url
rmi://<ip of machine A>:1099/dataServer
My client is able to access server with URL
rmi://<ip of machine A>:1099/dataServer.
basically if the binding URL are exactly matching then client program
is able to get a reference of the Server.
I'm using LocateRegistry to start RMI registry.
I wanna to know if the result i see is valid or my program is missing
something.
plse help me!!
just minutes before my submission i got struckup with this question!!
Thanks,

Bind your object to a simple name instead, and your problems will go away. For example:
registry.rebind("yourServiceName", yourObject);
