No, you're not. Jserv, Tomcat, et. al are for writing Java Server Page (jsp) files, which are applications to be run by the server. From your description you are not writing JSP applications but instead trying to deploy a client-side Java applet. Java applets are run inside the client's browser if the Java plugin is installed. They are delivered by the web server just like any other static HTML file, or image. The web server could be Apache or Tux or NCSA or anything -- as long as it can send out a file, it will work fine. Most likely you need to check the client browser configuration to make sure the Java plugin is properly set up. I suggest testing from a Windows client first, because the Java plugin is pretty easy to install in IE, whereas Mozilla on Linux has its headaches depending on what version of mozilla and the Java plugin. --Jeremy -- /---------------------------------------------------------------------\ | Jeremy Portzer [EMAIL PROTECTED] trilug.org/~jeremy | | GPG Fingerprint: 712D 77C7 AB2D 2130 989F E135 6F9F F7BC CC1A 7B92 | \---------------------------------------------------------------------/
