No you don't need to uninstall the gnu one. Java on rhel uses (or should, in a perfect world) the alternatives framework, which allows for multiple programs to provide an application or utility. That said, the java packages from sun are a bit braindead. You can get the java sdk rpm or bin from sun and install it but it won't do much for you, and it doesn't put java in a place where the system can "Just use it". The best way is to get the sun java sdk package, and then get the sun java compat rpm from jpackage.org -> http://jpackage.org/rpm.php?id=3320 This rpm tells your system all about the sun install and sets things up for you in alternatives so that you can begin using your shiny new non-GNU java. -- Jim Perrin System Architect - UIT Ft Gordon & US Army Signal Center
