Remote

public interface RMIRegistryProxy

extends Remote

An RMI registry proxy object. This object provides a single point through which all remote clients can obtain references to remote objects stored on this policy server. When a remote client performs a lookup it provides an environment variable which contains various pieces of data used to both check access and authenticate the remote client to ensure that no rogue RMI clients can obtain a remote object maintained on the policy server.
