Jintegra from www.linar.com will do what you want. It will run on either Windows or UNIX and make a DCOM connection to a WIndows machine.

Their com2java utility generates java classes for each object in the type library. The Java code for controlling a COM application looks a lot like the code you would use in VFP or VB. There are no optional parameters in their Java classes so you have to add the right number of 'null' parameters to match the method signature.
