No, you've found a bug: In order to find java_vm* the plugin parses
NPX_PLUGIN_PATH and uses the first directory for which '../java'
exists -- this is not really clever :-( I'll fix that for the next
release.
In the meantime: Make sure that '<first directory on NPX_PLUIN_PATH
for which ../java exits>/../java' contains the plugin: E.g. if you
have installed plugin into $(HOME)/.netscape then set NPX_PLUGIN_PATH
to $(HOME)/.netscape/plugins:....
