    I have done as suggested above but when I load the EB applet initially it outputs :

    # Applet EB did not shut down within 30 seconds -- killing it.

    ..to the java console. Any subsequent action (creating an account or trying to login with a pseudo username/passwd) brings up "Unable to contact server".
    (but no more messages in the java console).
    I have the server running on default 1981, and that port no. is specified as a param to the applet. I made my jar file after editing EB.java to declare the server name (which is the same as the webserver).

    Forgive me if I have missed something glaringly obvious - I am new to java.
    :)

    cheers

      The error message you get is something I just ignore. I've seen it on a lot of different Java programs under Netscape, so it must have something to do with threading. Netscape doesn't exactly have the best Java Runtime in the world.

      Perhaps you need to specify the param "Host" for the applet. I wouldn't think so seeing as you recompiled it with the host declared inside.

      That's all I can think of.
