[CentOS] Java installs but won't play

Dear friends:

I installed Sun's Java manually by downloading their Red Hat RPM. I followed 
instructions and the install came off fine (Done!), but when I try to play 
it, it won't work. I imagine that I probably need to create a symbolic link 
to the plugin. Here is the info:

[sher at localhost ~]$ whereis java
java: /usr/bin/java /etc/java /usr/lib/java /usr/share/java
[sher at localhost ~]$

Could you please help me by suggesting the command and link for this?

Thank you so much.

Benjamin
