I know this to be true. But the last time I worked with Java was
several years ago in college, and we the sysadmin had set everything up
so nicely I didn't have to think about it. I can generally get things
setup right with a little time/effort, but this one seems harder then
most to me.

No. There aren't any Java processes listening.

I was expecting it to all be symlinks, but they are all directories with
nearly identical condense. I'm currently assuming that YaST has done a
terrible job cleaning up after updates (although it's generally pretty
good about that). Is it likely to cause problems if I replace the dirs
with symlinks.

I used /usr/lib/SunJava2-1.4.2 for the JAVA_HOME although I hadn't
noticed j2sdk1.4.2_03 until after that.
I noticed a couple minutes ago that there is a /etc/share/java with only
1 .jar file in it. Would it make sense to use that as the CLASSPATH and
add classes like Lucene's .jar file there so it would be available to
all users?
Thanks for all this help. It's a little hard to keep up with the ideas
coming in so quickly, which in my mind is a good thing.
