Recent problems with Firefox and java *solved*

[Kevin G. Eliuk]

I have found the source of the problem (IBCAK).  After rebuilding 
jdk-1.4.2 again and "cp"ing "libjavaplugin_oji.so to" 
"/usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins/", firefox still crashed on a page with 
a java applet.

I did, as I now know I have to, go back and "ln" to the source 
"libjavaplugin_oji.so" in the same directory and firefox no longer crashes.

Can anyone shed information on why the file copy method would not work 
over the soft link method?
