Are you sure your other server didn't already have those libs installed? That aside, how does the fact that the binaries officially are only for FreeBSD 6.0 affect the support that can be given? I'm basically asking if it's a good idea for anyone who depends on Java support to upgrade to FreeBSD 6.1, or perhaps to hold off until there are official sanctioned binaries for that platform. -- GCP
