There is no more classes.zip in JDK1.2. This is now replaced by rt.jar
which can be found in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib.
You can still specify a CLASSPATH if you want, though it is no longer
necessary to specify the standard classes which are located in rt.jar (or
any standard extensions you have installed).
If the Mysql JDBC driver is distributed in a jar then add the name of the
jar to your classpath. For example, if the jdbc driver is distributed as
mysql.jar then try:
CLASSPATH=.:/usr/jdk/mm.Mysql-1.2a/mysql.jar
This will allow you to compile/run classes from your current directory
which use the JDBC driver found in your path.
You might also look at the "java -cp" option as an alternative to setting
a classpath.
This is all documented in the standard JDK1.2 docs.
Good luck.
