Unfortunately, a pregenerated stub class is still required when you
use that particular exportObject method, because its return type is
java.rmi.server.RemoteStub (a class, which cannot be extended by a
dynamic proxy class); changing that return type would have broken
binary compatibility.  See this footnote in the release notes[*]:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/rmi/relnotes.html#callout

Instead, use the UnicastRemoteObject.exportObject method that also has
a port parameter; its return type is java.rmi.Remote, an interface, so
a dynamic proxy instance can be returned (and is, if a pregenerated
stub class is not available).  Use zero for an anonymous port:

    Servidor stub = (Servidor) UnicastRemoteObject.exportObject(this, 0);
