I would guess tha the <Netscape 6> means to put the path to Netscape 6
in the command.  For instance, if you installed Netscape 6 in
/usr/local/Netscape6 then type:

export LD_DIRBARY_PATH="/usr/local/Netscape6:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

This assumes the bash shell.

Of course, the way that I have always "installed" my Java plugin
(including JDK 1.4.0) was to create a link from the
$JAVA_HOME/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji140.so with the
following command:

ln -s
/usr/local/j2sdk1.4.0/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji140.so
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.1/plugins

Then when I restarted the browser and typed about:plugins in the address
field, lo and behold!  the Java Plugin...

Hope this helps.
