You guys might also try setting the following in your shell file 

In my .tcshrc file I have the following:

setenv MOZILLA_HOME /opt/netscape

or where your netscape is installed.

In your .profile I believe it would be:

MOZILLA_HOME=/opt/netscape
export MOZILLA_HOME

This helps with allowing netscape to utilize java.

I have had no problem running all of the different versions of Netscape
and Communicator.
