The edu.stanford.smi.protege.server.socket.RmiSocketFactory class is 
part of the main body of Protege source code.  Please make sure that the 
"protege.jar" file is on your classpath.

This is not really a backwards compatibility issue.  The client-server 
version of Protege only works properly when you have the same version of 
Protege installed on the client and the server.  In other words, you'll 
get errors if you try to access a Protege server using a Protege client 
that is a different version.  WebProtege was compiled against 513, so 
the server needs to be that version as well.
