I had this problem a week ago. The problem is that Red Hat Linux 5.0 need
the updated glibc-2.07.13 library. Please download from
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/RedHat 5.0/updates/. Also, from my
personal experience, use tar.gz package instead of rpm package. After
applying the newer glibc and installing the jdk1.1.6, you can reboot your
machine.
Hope it helps.
