Unable to close a socket when running in hotjava

  I am doing some pretty basic socket communication.   sk is defined as a
public NetworkClient in a sub-class that I use in an applet.  I am able to
do all my communication, but when I execute  "sk.closeServer();"  (obviously
no quotes in the code), I get a null pointer exception. 
      When I made the class a stand-alone program however, I got no such
error and the program continued to run.
    I believe that the request is working (the server seems to close the
sockets -- It was not doing that when I commented out the line), but I can't
afford to have my applet crash each time.
   Any suggestions, comments would be greatly appreciated.

   Thanks,

    -- Mike
