Hi, I just comment the line:

System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());

from the server implementation and it worked, I�m now looking for some tutorial on RMISecurityManager if you know some link pls provide.
thanks in advance,
Marcos

The VM is not finding your policy file.
Be careful with JBuilder5 as there is an error in the VM run configs (they say c:\JBuilder4!), so make sure you have:
-Djava.security.policy=file:C:\JBuilder5\samples\RMI\SimpleRMI.policy
for this example. Otherwise check your paths and policy file very carefully.
