[Cialug] JAVA version woes.

[Jerry Heiselman]

you need to add /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_09 to your path.

In csh or tsch type: setenv PATH $PATH:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_09/bin
In sh, ksh, or bash type: export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_09/bin

You probably want to add those statements to your .profile or .login file
too.

The alternative that may work better is to put a link in /usr/bin for java.
To do that type: ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_09/bin/java /usr/bin/java.

If you have a csh-based shell, then you will need to type in: rehash
once you have done that.
