Running RMI Server on Different Port - binding issues

Hey all,
I've got a RMI client and server application with both the cliet and
server running on localhost. Getting everything running at the same
time hasn't been a problem unless I try to specify a different port
other than 1099 (default port). Here are the steps I take to try and
get the server up and running: (trying this on a winxp home edition
box)

from command prompt I run: rmiregistry 1005

I then execute my rmi server from eclipse, and I get the following
exception:
java.rmi.server.ExportException: Port already in use: 1005; nested
exception is:
java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind

Source)
at sun.rmi.transport.tcp.TCPEndpoint.newServerSocket(Unknown Source)

The line of code that the exception is originating from is:
UnicastRemoteObject.exportObject(this, portNumber);
where port number is also 1005.

Note that if I simply run rmiregistry followed by
UnicastRemoteObject.exportObject(this);
i.e. I don't specify a port, everything goes off without a hitch.
I've tried a few different configurations but nothing seems to get me
beyond this point... Any insite would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy
