Are you using native Mozilla? Native jdk1.4.2 plugins should not work
with linux browsers AFAIK.

# Add/link plugin and check plugin is loaded <about:plugins>

ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so \
/usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so

IPV6 issues.. there might be problems with IPV6 aware servers, so if
plugin is loaded and you get a bunch of errors about some crash in a
non-native method call, change this sysctl variable as below:

sysctl net.inet6.ip6.v6only=0
