By "putting it on the web" you mean what?

You can make a java applet that starts your application but that a) requires the plugin and b) puts your application under very strict sequrity settings.

Java web start may be what you are looking for: http://java.sun.com/products/javawebstart/index.html

Thanks jsalonen,

This is really very new to me, may be that is the reason I need to try explaining my problem ones more.

1. I have a Server program

2. And Client appliction which utilizes a AWT/SWING components. I have putted this files on one jar file but do not know how to run on my webserver so that people can use these files remotely(it is a distributed system).

Please help

Thanks again

It depends... How educated users are you expecting? (Hopefully not those who think that the CD-drive is meant to be a coffee cup holder ... :P)

The easiest solution for you would be distributing the jar file from a web server. The users can download the client software it and run it. (If it's not an executable jar you could distribute a batch file for running it if you have users that are not that familiar with the command line)

Of course, the users must download & install the JRE.

Java web start, then, is meant for the dummies..."JavaTM Web Start -- a new application-deployment technology -- gives you the power to launch full-featured applications with a single click from your Web browser."

It makes things REALLY easy for the users. I haven't worked with it so I don't know how you develop applications for it. There is a separate forum dedicated to it: http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jsp?forum=38
