Aaron,
What I typically set is the following:
export PATH=/usr/local/java/<java version>/bin:$PATH
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/<java version>
export CLASSPATH=/usr/local/java/<java version>/lib/tools.jar:/usr/java/<java
version>/jre/lib/rt.jar:
In your case substitute the above paths with your
version: /usr/lib/j2sdk1.4.2_03
Alternatively, you could download the latest java from http://java.sun.com
and install it wherever you would like (1.4.2_05 is out).
