Hi,
Sorry, am seeing this only now since I didn't get an email alert.
Yes, it works even in distributed case - I know because I've them working. Why do you feel it won't work?
Registering with naming registry is simply to give a label to a
java reference so that other objects can get it. In the above code, RemoteClient reference is given directly to server, so it is being used, but just not registered.
Cheers
