No. Note that elsewhere in the JDK 1.2 documentation (which is not
final yet) it shows that rmid is a new feature of JDK 1.2. It was not
part of the JDK 1.1 (1.1.x) releases.
When the JDK 1.2 is released and we have ported it to Linux, rmid will
most likely be part of that release.

If you are doing things that only work in JDK 1.2, you may need to wait
for JDK 1.2. Otherwise, please refer to the JDK 1.1 documentation on how
RMI is activated and works. Sorry I can not be of more specific help
other than to point you at:
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/tooldocs/solaris/index.html
and
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/rmi/index.html
(The solaris documentation is basically the "unix" documentation)
