if on X Windows, 

1  edit /etc/XF86Config

    XkbKeycodes     "xfree86"
    XkbTypes        "default"
    XkbCompat       "default"
    XkbSymbols      "jp(jp106)"
    XkbGeometry     "pc"
    XkbRules        "xfree86"
    XkbModel        "pc101"
    XkbLayout       "jp"

2 restart X server

if terminal, there are other files to edit, but i think the above is enough.

also, have a look at http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/jpninpt.html
for more info on using Japanese on RH.  written by Scott, a tlugger.
