Sorry to be somewhat vague but I no longer have the icedtea-web and java-1.7.0-openjdk packages installed on this RHEL 6u4 system. Alan.

The more I think about it, the more convinced I am that 'icedtea-web' and 'java-1.7.0-openjdk' were all that I required to have a working java plugin for firefox on a pure 64-bit RHEL 6 system. Alan.
firefox java plugin
I just upgraded my system from 5.5 to 6.4 (64 bit) and have one outstanding issue still plaguing me. Firefox does not find the java plugin, which disables many web applications I need. I have seen web chatter in several sites about this problem, including SL, so it certainly must be widespread. I notice that only the 64 bit version of firefox was installed as part of my 6.4 build, and I see frequent comments in the discussions about compatibility problems between 64 bit firefox and the Java plugin. If so, would a switch to the 32 bit firefox help? Or is there hope that an update to firefox/Java will be available soon that will fix the problem? Any other suggestions? T. Rosmond
