Oh dear ! I think you misunderstood me, Robert ! OK, here's what I mean ...

1. Let's start with your glibc library. I believe that Suse uses rpms just
like Red Hat and Caldera. Well, to check your glibc libraries, just do this
:

rpm -qa | grep glibc

This will display the libraries installed on your system and the version.
What you gave me in your email is your kernel version, which isn't really
important here. Anyway, what you should look out for is : if you have
glibc-2.1.2-xxx then you may have a little trouble running Java. This can be
tested by just executing "java -showversion" at the command prompt. If there
are issues, you will see no output, or the system will look as if it has
hung. My guess is, you probably don't have a problem here because you are
using the Sun JDK

2. I thought that you were using the wrong JDK package because you kept
getting the class not found error. Well, looking at you email, I think you
probably have the JDK installed OK, but the JSDK package is not, or the JDK
cannot find it.

Now, I have not much experience with Java 2, having always used JDK1.1.x
until very recently (i.e. last week) when I decided to shift to JDK1.3
because the new graduates in Singapore are more familiar with  Java 2 than
old-timers like me.

Anyway, I am guessing that you probably need to put jsdk.jar inside your
CLASSPATH. I know that Java 2 has gotten rid of this CLASSPATH thing (which
is a good and bad thing). You need to add the CLASSPATH in your /etc/profile
and remember to EXPORT it !! Very important !! Whenever I  find that a class
cannot be found, it's normally one or the other -- either it isn't in the
CLASSPATH or it wasn't EXPORTed. I hope you know how to edit /etc/profile
... ? If you don't, please send another email, and we shall discuss it.

3. IBM's JDK doesn't come with the servlet classes (at least version 1.1.8
doesn't) so you need to download it and put it in your CLASSPATH. I am using
IBM's JDK1.3 on Caldera OpenLinux eServer 2.3 and Tomcat and it works really
well !! It runs faster than my original JDK1.1.8 on COL2.2 and JServ. But
JServ is an interesting product, and by a twist of fate, I will be working
with it again with renren.com, a Chinese portal in Hong kong, next week.

Keep trying, Robert !! When you get it running, it really is a work of art
!! Thank you, Jon Stevens and the rest of the Java-Apache team !!

Regards,
pascal chong
