deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main non-freedeb-src http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main non-freeRun
apt-get updateInstall the Java JDK as follows:
apt-get install sun-java6-jdkMake it available system wide:
update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sunecho 'JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun"' | tee -a /etc/environment
