Hello,
This rpm has been updated.  Now for i386 we have both the old 
(libjavaplugin_oji.so) and the new (libnpjp2.so) plugin.
To test these updates, simply follow the instructions below.  You should 
be getting

SL4:
java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.20-3.sl4.jpp.i586.rpm

SL5:
java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.20-3.sl5.jpp.i586.rpm
java-1.6.0-sun-compat-1.6.0.20-3.sl5.jpp.x86_64.rpm

Thanks to those who have tested, and to Oleg for getting me a fix that 
put's both plugin's in for i386.

Troy
