Terminology caution: usually "application server" refers to a J2EE (or
.Not) server. Most people prefer to call tomcat a servlet/JSP
container.
A full-fledged application server would probably have a full, native,
administrabale RMI component.

You're on the right track. It's the applet throwing the exception, and
the applet that needs the permission. Grant the above to the applet by
modifying the .policy file on the client as well. Yes, that means every
PC that runs your applet needs to have the .policy file adjusted -- the
applet security model is very restrictive. One reason I stay away from
applets ;)
