This may have to do with a serious flaw in the way the JVM works with
URLFactories. I don't understand all of the details, but the gist is that
only one URLFactory may exist in a JVM, whih essentially means that only
one application may add support for additional URLs to the JVM. Is it
possible that, on your linux server, another servlet has already created a
URLFactory?

As I understand it, Stefano, et. al. are _actively_ looking for an
alternate solution. Do you have any suggestions?
