Don't know about your exact problem, but I've got one running in the
past using a network analyzer tool (ethereal) to decode the
communication between the javastation and the server.

Also, don't panic if all you get to work on the thing is Linux; it's the
only os with which you can still make use of the js: the "factory"
software uses a Java-based X-server which is extremely slow.
