Mike,

Under what conditions does [JRSRenderServer recieveRenderServer:] fail? In our automated tests this occasionally returns 0, so the embedded frame creation fails. My guess is that the applet tag isn't quite right so the browser doesn't allocate a port for the remote connection, but I haven't looked into it at any depth yet. I don't know. Bino may have an idea. Does this only show up in automated testing? If so, what is kicking off the browser and Java processes? I hope this isn't just a side effect of being in the wrong bootstrap context.

So, the answer to my original question is "when you pass in nil." :-)

After some off-list discussion and some debugging I found that I have a race condition I need to work out. Sorry for the false alarm.
