Just to have this in the archive somewhere, regarding the
install of Netscape from ftp.netscape.com.

   First, the proper way to install Netscape is to use the 
 port/package system; which probably has the right dependencies
 to get things installed.

   But, if you're like me and simply grabbed the Netscape
 files from ftp.netscape.com you will need to install the
 XFree86 3.3.3 aout package.

  The compat22 (and other compat distributions) contain
 the C libraries, etc... but, there are no X11 libraries.
 
   Simply use pkg_add to install the XFree86 aout package,
 and *poof*  Netscape will work.


	- Thanks for everyone's assist -
