> Hello, I was wondering if there is anyone using Java and CORBA with FreeBSD.

Yes.  As I mentioned to a previous query about this earlier this week, I
ported IONA's OrbixWeb 3.0 to FreeBSD by hacking on their scripts.  It's
not complete (IDL doesn't work), but it does work.  I can get away with
not having IDL since I use my Solaris box to generate the IDL files, and
then do all my development on FreeBSD.

However, there are lots of free IDL/CORBA implementation out there,
including a couple in ports.  I think one of them even does Java.  Also
note that JDK1.2 ships with an IDL compiler, so you might be able to
take the stuff out of there and use in the FreeBSD JDK.

There is no such FAQ for FreeBSD, or any other OS for that matter.
There is a mailing list 'Java-Corba@Luke.org' which might be helpful.
