When I deploy a simple HelloWorld RMI server object (with the code shown at the bottom
of this posting) to the deploy directory of JBoss 3.2.6 it is NOT bound successfully.

Why?

A Context.list() from a client does not list it and a lookup from a client yields a

RmiClient exception: myRmiServer not bound
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: myRmiServer not bound
