I didn't have to do that. the link was already there, I didn't notice at
first, I tried to copy the file from the /bin into the plugins directory,
and it tried to overwrite itself, (ie the symlink was pointing it back to
itself..)

I found a ControlPanel app in the bin directory,  I ran that, selected JRE
instead of plugin, applied it, and shut down it and mozilla, then restarted
and it worked... so I went back into the controlpanel, set it back to
plugin, and applied it, and closed the control panel, then started mozilla
again and it still worked, go figure???

Hehehe, I had this problem once too... you need to symlink a file:

cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

ln -s java2/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so libjavaplugin_oji.so

That worked for me :-)
