Wow! I learn something new every day. I did not realize you could take
the jar file from java fixes and install it into a redhat system.
Interesting. I thought those things were intended only for MS windows
systems.

Yea, that's the reason for existense for jars. They're primarily intended as 
cross-platform delivery packages. Somewhat analagous to RPMS, except there is 
no installation process; they're just a way to bundle code and resources.
