I have found that I need to have user-mode ppp running before I start
<BR>Communicator.

<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE>Hello,

<P>I just tried the native freebsd communicator 4.02b7 version and had
a
<BR>small problem:

<P>Communicator only started for user_pref the first time, it hanged next
<BR>time.

<P>Solution:

<P>Get rid of the line:
<BR>user_pref("browser.startup.license_accepted", "228 4.02b7");
<BR>in preferences.js. This will result in popping the licence dialog all
<BR>the time, but at least it then worked for me.

<P>So my startupscript looks like this:

<P>#!/bin/sh
<BR>XKEYSYMDB=/usr/local/netscape/XKeysymDB
<BR>XNLSPATH=/usr/local/netscape/nls/
<BR>MOZILLA_HOME=/usr/local/netscape
<BR>#CLASSPATH=/usr/local/netscape/java/classes/java40.jar
<BR>LANG=C
<BR>LC_CTYPE=C
<BR>export XKEYSYMDB XNLSPATH CLASSPATH LANG LC_CTYPE MOZILLA_HOME
<BR>#nofpe /usr/local/netscape/netscape $* >/tmp/comm.out 2>&amp;1 &amp;
<BR>mv ~/.netscape/preferences.js ~/.netscape/preferences.js.bak
<BR>cat&nbsp; ~/.netscape/preferences.js.bak | grep -v "228 4.02b7"
<BR>>~/.netscape/preferences.js
<BR>/usr/local/netscape/netscape $* >/tmp/comm.out 2>&amp;1 &amp;

<P>Same expierience for all of you? Other solutions?

<P>Michael

"If it is true that our Universe has a zero net value for all conserved
quantities, then it may simply be a fluctuation of the vacuum of some
larger space in which our Universe is imbedded. In answer to the
question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our
Universe is simply one of those things which happen from time to time."
