Can't seem to get the JDB from the J2SE SDK 1.4.2_02 to work on Red Hat
Linux
9. JDB always hangs after entering the "run" command. Here is what I get:

$ cat helloworld.java
public class helloworld
{

   public static void main( String[] args ) {
       System.out.println( "hello world" );
   }

}
$ javac -classpath ./ -g helloworld.java
$ java -classpath ./ helloworld
hello world
$ jdb -classpath ./ helloworld
Initializing jdb ...
> run
run helloworld <======== JDB hangs here

Using exactly the same J2SE SDK 1.4.2_02 on a Debian 3.x distribution works
fine. How can I get JDB to work on Red Hat Linux 9 ?
