Sorry if this has already been discussed in the past. My problem is that I
have a servlet which creates images. It uses the awt for printing fonts. As
I use linux in my production environnment, I have to launch jrun in a X
session, which is not very usefull. Plus I cannot remotely restart jrun in
X. All this brings me to another solution. I would like to outsource the
graphical procedure into another servlet, executing on a NT server, and
retrieve its result (a gif image in most case), store it locally on the
linux box. On this platform, the graphical environnment is always present,
and I could restart jrun remotely. The linux box wouldn't need X anymore,
this would enable to restart the java server.


----> SERVLET (linux) service--------------------------stores the result of
the NT servlet, continues the service procedure -------------> HTTP response
              |                                                       |
              ----------------------> SERVLET (NT)---------

For this architecture, is it better to use a servlet or an application on
the NT side ? Is there any way to simplify this scheme of function , and
what synchrnization do I need ?

Best regards
Sylvain
