Install on some 2K/XP machine. Then just copy /jdk.... to your NT machine. Setup set JAVA_HOME = c:\<jdkdir> set CLASSPATH=.;%CLASSPATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\<jdk if needed>\jre\lib\rt.jar set PATH=%PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\bin I think that about does it. I'd be amazed and very disappointed if java.exe from 5 does not run on NT. IMO NT was the last decent 'dows release. After that the memory mgt went to pot. May want to add tools.jar to CLASSPATH too if running Tomcat and want to compile JSP's. TimJowers |
