That's great - but how the HECK did you know this was the > magic key? This shouldn't be so ARCANE!!! That's because the java plugin for Firefox/Mozilla/etc. is actually part of the /Java/ port: gravitas:...ports/java/jdk14:% pkg_which /usr/X11R6/lib/browser_plugins= /libjavaplugin_oji.so=20 jdk-1.4.2p7 I agree, it is a bit arcane, but you can work out what to type by grovelling through the contents of /usr/ports/java/jdk14/work after you've built the port -- or you can be clever and find the places this has been discussed on various FreeBSD mailing lists before now.
