Can both machines (client and server) mutually access a public directory on
the network? Or can the server access a directory on the client machine?
(via ftp, shared directory, nfs, etc.)
If you are running in an intranet, you might be able to have the scanning
or webcam software write the image to the shared location. You could then
have the browser invoke the servlet and then have the servlet read the file
from the location directly. This way, you wouldn't have to handle the
Multipart Request or deal with a file dialog. If the file name changes,
you could send the file name or the path to the server and have the use it
to locate the file.
