Do you use a mozilla version installed via package management or did you
install it manually (e.g. in /usr/local)? If you installed locally, you
have to copy the plugin files to the plugin directory of your local
install (/usr/local/mozilla/plugins). What version of Debian do you use?
And does information about the plugin show up in mozilla (select Help >
About Plugins to find out).

If the plugin is recognized by mozilla, the following information will be
displayed:

rpnp.so

    File name: /usr/lib/netscape/plugins-libc6/rpnp.so

Mime Type Description Suffixes Enabled
audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin RealPlayer Plugin Metafile rpm Yes
