I have tried the link you pointed me to, but cannot get it to work.
I have also searched the forum to no joy.
I have RDC servers running on my server, but for some reason I cannot get to start my app from a browser.
you need to login to your ssh console and start the server like you did it with jrdc. This is asuming you are using jRDC2 and not the deprecated RDC (which is something other than jRDC)
Start with providing more info what kind of server you are using and how you do start the rdc on your Server by a browsercall.
Yes I am using jRDC2 servers to interact with my Android app - working great and no problems. (I have RDC servers running for over 3 years flawlessly)
What I am trying to do is to have a B4J app running on my server that acts as a UI to allow users to enter data that will eventually be written into a MySQL database.
After building a complex access-control, security Application in B4J and running like a charm for 3 years, I get the question to turn this in a Web-application. This Application is that complex, that it is not possible to turn this, a easy way, in a Web-Application. This means rewrite the hole...
But be aware of the security risks. Unless in house and in a very controlled way, I would not recommend doing this. Most system/network engineers will not allow java apps to be activated in a browser.

You may be right. Then I will suggest @Declan to check your (@alwaysbusy) ABMaterial or BANano to build web app with B4J. Also check out BANanoVue and BANanoVueMaterial by @Mashiane too.

I don't think that this is the case WebSwing. This is not a Java applet. I haven't tried it myself but it looks like the UI app is running on their server and is somehow mirrored to the browser. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it cannot access any local resource. It is similar to a remote desktop.
The security issues you mention were related to Java applets which was more similar to Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight.
