On a 200MHz box, it's going to take a very long time. I'm not really sure how long, but likely days. (IIRC it takes over an hour or maybe two on my 2GHz Athlon XP, but I haven't timed it and it's been a while). I never build anything that large on a machine like that - I use a fast machine to build and then mount /usr/ports from the build machine on the install machine for the installation, but I understand that this isn't always an option. > Once it is BUILT on the NFS system - will I be able to INSTALL > it on my clients?

As far as the licenses, nobody here can give you the kind of legal advice you can get from a lawyer, but Sun has severely restricted distribution of JDK, if that gives you a place to start. Talk with your laywer for advice regarding your particular circumstance. - jt
