the client needs the codebase to be set if you are going to download the stubs
on the fly. Remember that you are downloading behaviour via RMI. This
remotely loaded behaviour executes on the client. It is a security issue that
requires you to explicitly set the codebase for this remote behaviour.

If you do not download the stubs remotely, e.g. the stubs are already in your
classpath, you do not need to set a remote classpath.
