Applet and RMI access on file server

Hi,

this architecture is given:

Client-Web Server/RMI ServerDatabase Server

............................................................|__File Server

The Client shows images and requests the path of the image, which is stored in the database. The files for all images are stored on the file server. RMI Server has access to the database and the file server. What is the best way to deliver the files to the client? Should i copy them from the file server to a temporary directory on the Web Server and send this new path to the client?

Thanks,

Robert

Hi Robert,

Typically the client would send a query to the RMI Server, and display the result from the database.

This is a frequently asked question. To save myself, and a lot of others, a bunch of typing; I typically link to simple [url=http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/Communications/ProxyUsage]example.[/url] Hopefully this can get you up and running quickly; and you certainly know where to come when you have questions.

Best wishes,

John
