Installing Sun JRE plugin in Firefox

[john d. herron]

Don't know which way to turn (but this is probably not the proper list, 
either); but here goes:
I'd like to create a Sun JRE 6.0 plugin for Firefox, which is needed for 
me to try out a new (beta) Web-based version of OpenOffice.org 2.3 
(www.ulteo.com).
The instructions in http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/ say:
"1. Install Java Runtime Environment. "
    I did, into /usr/local/jre1.6.0_03.
"2  Make a symbolic link to libjavaplugin_oji.so in your Mozilla Plugins 
directory. Use the copy located in the plugin/i386/ns7 directory of JRE 
5.0 or later..."
    There is a file called 'libjavaplugin_oji.so' in 
/usr/local/jre1.6.0_03/plugin/i386/ns7.
    It would seem that my Firefox plugins are located in 
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.
What should I do to '/make a symbolic link to libjavaplugin_oji.so in 
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins'/ ?
I readily admit I'm pretty dense (blush).

Any help will be thankfully appreciated
