If you're running redhat, the gcj package (libgcj) installs by default,
giving you /usr/bin/rmic and /usr/bin/rmiregistry. I found that the
rmiregistry didn't work with the stubs compiled with the version of java I
have - so I wouldn't be surprised if rmic choked on the visad rmi
routines.
Either uninstall libgcj, or put your java/bin directory into your PATH
environment variable _before_ /usr/bin
Hope this helps...
Cheers,
Chris
