    Add this after those two lines:
    Code:
    export PATH

    PATH=$PATH:/$home/username/j2sdk1.4.1/bin

    Typo? $HOME/$USERNAME
    Needs to be all caps. Are you sure you need the username thing in there?

    What is the actual directory pathname to the java bin directory?

    On my system, /home/vls points into my personal directory; I have a bin directory that I put scripts and test programs in so : /home/vls/bin
    If I did the java thing it would be /home/vls/j2sdkwhatever/bin
