This ought to work.

First determine the full path name of the plugin you need... I can't
remember about RH9, but it may still have used gcc 2.96.
If you installed the j2sdk in /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_01 then....

....the full path the plugin (for Mozilla, gcc 2.96) is
/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_01/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so

So now all you have to do is make a link to this file in your Mozilla
plugins directory, for example

# cd /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
# ln -s /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_01/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so

You can verify it by exiting and restarting Mozilla and viewing the
'About' menu and/or by going to one of the test pages below.

I don't really understand this question... could you be more specific?
