[ale] browser plugins

[Dow Hurst]

Since you need to support other users then just log in as root.  You 
should end up with the link in the plugin directory to the j2re 
directory.  Just make sure that link and the j2re directory and files 
are world readable so you and your users can have access to it.

Here is an example of what to do if the permissions are screwed up:

cd /usr/local
chmod -R 755 ./j2re

and remove java link and remake:

cd /usr/local/mozilla/plugins
rm libjavaplugin_oji.so
umask 022
ln -s /usr/local/j2re/libjavaplugin_oji.so ./libjavaplugin_oji.so

that should make sure things are right.
