RH 7.0 comes with a broken beta release of glibc-2.2. Install the
updates from http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHBA-2000-079.html

Red Hat has released at least 3 new sets of rpms for 7.0 which
address
bugs in the glibc packages. Some of the bugs fixed include some
killers
which break Sun's JVM.
I'd go visit an update site (I usually try ftp.valinux.com first) and
download every available glib*rpm for 7.0.

J2SDK v1.3.0 requires glibc-2.1.3 or higher. The above problem
usually happens when you try to run Java on a system with
an older version of glibc.

You can check your version of glibc with ls /lib/libc*
