This is definitely sub-par. Java under the Linuxalator just works enough to boot strap the native JDK. Wouldn't recommend it for production usage. >Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I don't want to have to go to > linux for production. More to the point, how are people using JBoss in > production on FreeBSD? With the native JDK1.4.2. Its been around long enough to be considered producation capable.
