You'd better use the LOCALTEXMF tree (could be: /usr/local/share/...)
The .bst files have to go in
LOCALTEXMF/bibtex/bst/jurabib
as you said. But the .sty, .ldf, and .cfg files should be located in
LOCALTEXMF/tex/latex/jurabib

For more information about where to store which kind of files in a TeX 
system, see:
ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/tds/tds.html
(also available as .pdf, .dvi, .tex, ...)

After storing the files properly, you should run
texhash (or: texconfig rehash)
in a shell so that tetex can find the files.

I hope it was understandable enough.

A historian who just works a little bit longer with that kind of stuff 
(you'll learn it, too!).
