It depends on how you want users to chat. Implementing a (1) 100% Web-based chatroom (no applet), or (2) users use applet from a Web page to chat? Or (3) users have dedicated clients (e.g. swing GUI) for chat?
I hope this is not college assignment. We don't allow posting these kind of questions here. But I will not post any code anyway as they are not something you can do with just a few lines of code and you should try to explore on your own.
(3) The GUI client can support any client-server socket protocol so this is the most traditional way to do this
(2) An applet can have limited networking capability so you can mostly use your own protocol as in case (3)
(1) Without applet, immediate refresh of message on Web page may be triggered by AJAX. You can use Tomcat (or even application server such as JBoss) to host an application server with state managed on it. However, to avoid excessive AJAX polling, you can use Jetty instead of Tomcat, that supports "continuations" so that it can push update to client instead of requiring polling from client side. Actually, the Jetty distribution has an example that exactly demonstrates how to create a chatroom using this method.

NAME
firewall-applet - firewalld applet
SYNOPSIS
firewall-applet [OPTIONS...]
DESCRIPTION
firewall-applet is a tray applet for firewalld.
OPTIONS
firewall-applet does not support any special options. The only options that can be used are the general options that Gtk uses for Gtk
application initialization. For more information on these options, please have a look at the runtime documentation for Gtk.
The following options are supported:
-h, --help
Prints a short help text and exists.
GSETTINGS
firewall-applet has additional settings to adapt the look and feel. The used backend depends on the distribution and can be either dconf or
GConf. The path to the settings is org.fedoraproject.FirewallApplet. You can use dconf-editor or gconf-editor to see and modify them.
The following settings are supported:

The applet shows notifications if enabled. This setting can be enabled also in the applet with the "Enable Notifications" checkbox in
the right mouse menu.

o Connection to firewalld established
o Connection to firewalld lost
o Firewall has been reloaded
o Default zone has been changed
o Panic mode has been enabled or disabled
o Activation, deactivation or change of zones bound to interfaces
o Activation, deactivation or change of zones bound to sources addresses
show-inactive
Show applet also if firewalld is not running. If firewalld has been stopped or is not running the applet will be hidden and not visible
in the applet tray. Enable this setting to see the applet all the time for example to be sure that the firewall is active.
This setting defaults to false.
shields-up
The shields-up zone name to be used if shields-up is enabled.
This setting defaults to 'block'.
shields-down
