When you say, "off it went," do you mean it crashed.?  I think
symlinking the plugin into Mozilla's plugin directory is a bad idea. 
This didn't work for me with NS 4.  Instead, try setting the plugin
environment variables to include the path to libjavaplugin_oji.so.  In
NS 4, the variable is NPX_PLUGIN_PATH.  It may be the same for Mozilla,
but you might want to check.

After setting the environment correctly, Netscape worked fine for me.
