RedHat 4.2 is based on libc v5.x so jdk_1.1.6-v5-x86-lib5.tar.gz is just what
you need. If you ever upgrade to RedHat 5.1 (or above I would guess) then you
would need the glibc version.
I don't know very much about kaffe, but the few experences that I have had were
poor. I have been using blackdowns jdk & vm's for quite a while now and I am
very pleased with them.
