Fantastic! Thanks Stephan! I'm going to try out these patches on NetBSD 1.5.2 as I was (as luck may have it) just getting it set up to look into the gethostent(). Looks like you have saved me some work. Note that the JDK isn't expect to support NetBSD < 1.4, so that is not a problem. In fact, I don't believe its been tried on NetBSD less than 1.5 (or if it has I haven't heard a report). The usual aim is the most recent stable version, but if it works with current as well, then that is an added bonus :). I'll definitely let you know if I have any feedback on the patches after some testing. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
