The Java port is complicated by Sun's ridiculous licensing stuff *and* by it depending on the Linux Java to build the native version. So rather than a normal build, you'll have to fetch the files into /usr/ports/distfiles yourself. First, build the Linux Java: cd /usr/ports/java/linux-sun-jdk13 make (here's where you stop and download the files from Sun's page) make install Then make the native Java cd /usr/ports/java/jdk13 make (Download files; it'll tell you where.) make install > Also, once make has run, are there steps to configure in my browser? Thx, Yes, make a few links: cd /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugins ln -s /usr/local/jdk1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so I can't recall if you can run the Java2 plugin in the native Mozilla. I think so; as root, go to games.yahoo.com and run Diamond Mine. It'll tell you that you need a new Java plugin. Say okay and download it. After the plugin installs, close Mozilla. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
