RE: Java 'n' Netscape



Which communicator did you install? 

I got got
ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/communicator/english/4.61/unix/supported/linux20_l
ibc5/complete_install/communicator-v461-export.x86-unknown-linux2.0.tar.gz, and
it properly created all the java stuff for me.

Move it to /tmp/communicator-v461-export.x86-unknown-linux2.0-glibc2.tar.gz,
and install it using 'apt-get install netscape4' to wherever you want.

To find a specific file, try the dpkg bot on #debian on irc.debian.org.  do a
'!find java40.jar', for example, and he will tell you :)
