Install Java Plugin to Browser

After installing JRE on linux of course we want our browser enable running java. Below are step-by-step on how to do that.

(1) Go to your browser plugins directory. For example, if you are using Netscape then type this command

cd /usr/lib/Netscape6/plugins

(2) Create a soft link to your libjavaplugin

ln -s /usr/java/j2re-1_4_2_09/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so .

(3) Restart your browser

(4) Change your browser preference

Choose Edit -> Preferences

(5) Enable Java checkbox
