Your code looks fine, the problems exists on where you are hosting the components. The servlet is looking for your applet off of ITS root file system. It doesn't know that /home is on a different machine. You need to make the path to the applet the full URL.
In addtion, the servlet will not be able to access the applet on a file system. The applet will need to be hosted on a webserver so the applet can find it.

Just try to use fully qualified class name of the applet as the value of code attribute: CODE="packagename.classname.class". Also applet class file should be placed within web application, e.g. web application name is 'test',
then you access servlet via http://hostname :port/test/servlet/Servletname.class
Applet class file should be placed in test/packagename/ folder within your web server. In this case you dont have to mess with CODEBASE attribute value and can leave it to be "."
