This is ok.

Wrong.

Nope.
* You DO NOT need to set JAVA_HOME. Doing so can be bad for your health
* You only need to set CLASSPATH when you want it to contain something
other than '.' and the classes.zip (in your case, I think you didn't
need that, but it depends your hellow world's package structure
and what your current directory is).
Try running again w/out the bad env var settings. Did you get the glibc
version of the JDK? That's the one that you want for RH 5.1.
