If you load an applet from server X, the applet can make socket connections ONLY back to server X. You can't connect your applet to other servers like ibm.com or sun.com or anything else. It is a security issue. So, make your chat server resident on machine X and load applet from the same X machine.

If the problem is not like that described above, then enjoy digging ... :) Sockets are quite simple, in fact.
