Which Java for RH 9

[Leila Lappin]

Chris,

I use netscape 6.2 as my browser and I never had to
configure the pluggin manually.  In my case all I do
is to install jre binary which you have.  I then get
the pluggin that I need to run Java applets.  As far
as configuring pluggins manually I only did that for
RealPlayer once following the instructions on various
websites.  So I'm afraid I won't know more than you
do.
