Don't recall  seeing you at the forum .

Here is a small excerpt from my setup and it may work for you
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0_01
CLASSPATH=.:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/rt.jar:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/javaplugin.jar:$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/tools.jar

export JAVA_HOME, CLASSPATH

If it doesn't work, please post your /etc/profile to this forum as well as
info about your package.
N.B. do not forget the .: (dot colon) for CLASSPATH.

That's where I put my  .jar

Good luck,.
