rmic/classpath issues

Hi all.
I recently installed JDK 1.4.2-07 on my linux box. I've been trying to
get a stub from my RMI server using rmic withouth any success.

What I've got basically is a server class in a directory called 'bin'
and some libraries it depends on, in a diferent directory called 'lib',
both directories inside my application dir.

What I had been doing in windoze is something like this:

rmic -classpath "bin:lib/xxxx.jar:lib/xxxx.jar:..." -d bin Server

This worked on win with no problems. However in linux I get a beatiful:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: while
resolving class: Server
[...]
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
net.sf.hibernate.cfg.Configuration not found in
[file:/usr/java/j2se/jre/lib/rt.jar, file:./, core:/]
[...]

Obviously rmic is not findind my jars. I've tried everything without any
result. I recently noticed however, from the output of 'rmic --help',
that rmic is ignoring the -classpath option, which is weird enough. This
must be a linux-only issue :?
Any clues? Can you see a solution to this, apart from putting all my
jars in the CLASSPATH environment variable, something I'd like to avoid?

Thanks in advance.
