Thanks, Simply download theJDK source from Sun, and the patches from the JDK13 page, put everything into /usr/ports/distfiles, cd into /usr/ports/java/jdk13, and make install. You have to manually download them because Sun makes you log into a page to fetch the sources, and that can't be automated. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
