I just got confirmation that SP6 was applied or re-applied to the NT4.0
workstation, and that the problem with java.net on NT4.0 persisted.
Now, it's not a big deal, since this series of workstations was scheduled to
be upgraded to win2K anyway. This particular one has now been upgraded ahead
of schedule. So, the problem was circumvented.
