First, your syntax for ln is wrong - the target (the file the link
should point to) should be first. Second, you need to use a $ on
JAVA_HOME so the shell knows you're referring to a shell variable (I
assume JAVA_HOME is actually defined? Type "echo $JAVA_HOME" to check).
Third, the default install location for mozilla on Red Hat is
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.0.1, not /usr/include. If you're running mozilla
1.0.1 as included on the RH 8.0 CDs, try the following:

ln -s $JAVA_HOME/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.0.1/plugins

If $JAVA_HOME is not defined, either set it in bash or just use the full
path to the plugin. If you're running a different version of mozilla,
replace mozilla-1.0.1 with the appropriate directory.
