Thank you very much guys!
It worked finally. I downloaded the jdk from sun.com and installed successfully. Also, the service command worked. I didn't know I have to log in this way!
The installation created several rpms on my desktop, can I delete them?
Do you have any explanation as to why the java command worked and javac didn't even though I installed the java development package?
Do you suggest any books or online resources for a beginner?
javac : command not found

If they were the result of your downloads and they have been installed then it should be safe to delete them. If in doubt show us the names of the files.

Post #4. May also be a path issue.

See those in the recommended reading (see my signature), and search for books on Amazon.com about CentOS or "Red Hat Enterprise Linux" or old versions of Fedora (6 or 7 for CentOS-5) - usually dirt-cheap. On-line resources are too numerous to mention. You need to narrow down what you are interested in, or just google variations on [url=http://www.google.com/search?q=~tutorial+centos+OR+rhel+OR+%22red+hat+enterprise+linux%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a]~tutorial centos OR rhel OR "red hat enterprise linux"[/url].

I'm interested in building a web server, so setting up a web server, security, and performance are of interest to me.
Thanks again,
