This snippet is from the INSTALL file in the JRE installation directory :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Mozilla / Netscape 6
Create a symbolic link from
<Java2 SDK installation>/jre/plugin/<ARCH>/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so to
one of the directories Mozilla/Netscape 6 searches for plug-ins.
E.g.
% ln -s /usr/local/j2sdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so \
~/mozilla-0.9.1/plugins/
or
% su # become root
% ln -s /usr/local/j2sdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so \
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
Note: It has to be a symbolic link, copying javaplugin.so will NOT work
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You may need to change the plugin directory on the above commands to the one
Mozilla uses on your system.
I did it on my system and it works fine. My mozilla plugin directory was:
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
