Currently, I have a machine on which I am working in Eclipse, it says that the JRE System Library version is sun-jdk-1.5.0.11 but on my active development machine, it is java-6-sun-1.6.0.16. Is there any way I can make the first machine to use the same “java-6-sun-1.6.0.16” version without having sudo permissions on the machine?

You can install the JDK in a non-standard directory, for example under your own home directory, without special permissions.
You just need to point PATH and JAVA_HOME and Eclipse at it.
