Server Properties

The following table contains a list of properties typically used by servers for configuration.


Property	Description
java.rmi.server.codebase	Indicates the server's codebase URL where classes are available for clients to download.
java.rmi.server.disableHttp	If set to true, disables the use of HTTP for RMI calls. This means that RMI will never resort to using HTTP to invoke a call via a firewall. Defaults to false (HTTP usage is enabled).
java.rmi.server.hostname	Used to specify the fully-qualified hostname, if one is not available via the InetAddress.getLocalHost() call. Not set by default.
java.rmi.dgc.leaseValue	Sets the maximum lease duration that is granted for clients referencing remote objects in the VM. Defaults to 10 minutes.
java.rmi.server.logCalls	If set to true, server call logging is turned on and prints to stderr. Defaults to false.
java.rmi.server.useCodebaseOnly	If set to true, when RMI loads classes (if not available via CLASSPATH) they are only loaded using the URL specified by the property java.rmi.server.codebase.

Other Properties
