Note I did NOT use any ports I simply installed the Linux_base6* and then installed the binary versions of the above programs and set the necessary paths in my .cshrc. The only real tricky part was getting the mod_webapp.so to build from source. Other then that I have had j2sdk1.4 core on me a few times and I would be more then happy to send the future cores someone if they could help me debug the problems further. If I can be of any help just ask. Regards, Jeremy Suo-Anttila jps@funeralexchange.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
