hi, depending on your needs if the client is whatever firefox / request via json / … or a fat client real Swing application and server is a web service base solution or RMI then you can run the server without X11 just a few libraries are needed tomcat is normally for web requests via http therefore you would not need the X11 only the libraries how do you start the client app ? is it a standalone ? (= Swing client) is the access via http browser ? for me it sounds like a fat client, then you have not the chance to run it on the host… but explain a little bit more, perhaps i can help you br horst > On 23 Sep 2016, at 09:14, Matthias Apitz <guru@unixarea.de> wrote: > > El día Friday, September 23, 2016 a las 08:36:12AM +0200, Andrea Venturoli escribió: > >> On 09/22/16 15:02, Matthias Apitz wrote: >>> >>> Hello, >>> >>> We have some applications written in Java and which are running (normally) on a >>> Windows PC or any kind of workstation in a Java VM.
