OK, this question has probably been answered before, but
my search of the mailing list doesnt find the answer.

If I want to allow Fedora2 / Mozilla 1.7 to run Java, what do I do?

I have loaded two different copies of Java, and when I 
load mozilla both give the message:

---

LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /mnt/home/share/local/mozilla/p
lugins/java2/plugin/i386/ns600/
libjavaplugin_oji.so [libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory]

---

which SEEMS to be saying that this thing wants libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
which was (I assume) distributed with a previous version of Linux.

Is there a more recent version of the JAVA RPM out there that loads with
current libraries?
Can I safely make a symbolic link from this name to the CURRENT library?
Or is JAVA just not runnable from the current Fedora/Mozilla combination?
