You're probably doing something like:
java -classpath thezipfile.zip thepackage.TheClass
you should do something like:
java -classpath /usr/local/jdk1.1.6v7/lib/classes.zip:thezipfile.zip
thepackage.TheClass
java -classpath $CLASSPATH:thezipfile.zip thepackage.TheClass
Problem is some versions of the java command cannot find (or do not want
to find, I'm still not sure ;o) ) where the JDK classes.zip file is
unless it is in the class path. It seems that the windoze version of java
is a bit more intelligent.
