And a Merry Christmas to you too. Grow up and dispense with the
name-calling. It doesn't serve you well. Raquel? No idea who that
is.

I'll concede that there are people who can't get the Sun JRE to work.
Their problems stem from one of two things, both related to $PATH.
1. kaffe is installed. get rid of it.
2. the user doesn't have the proper directory in his $PATH.
If you don't install kaffe (which SHOULD be listed as a conflicting
package for the SUN JRE/JDK), and can set a $PATH, your Sun JRE will
fall out of the box working, plain and simple. I assume that people
who have used RH for a while can configure a $PATH. Hopefully in your
case, I haven't assumed too much.

"enigma" == RedHat 7.2. Haven't seen the login banner on a RH 7.2
machine? Haven't seen the RH7.2-specific list, which is called
"enigma-list"? With regard to the distro, it's pretty safe to assume
that one would ask RedHat questions on the redhat-list.

Always "on"? Maybe, maybe not. More observant? Seems more likely.
Don't get your shorts in a wad.
