Since it is written in pure Java, it makes Java geeks like myself quite happy. I would love to get it running on FreeBSD but unfortunately, it will not work without a service framework and therefore will not work on FreeBSD :'( The ApacheDS team has suggested getting a jsvc port for FreeBSD in order to port over ApacheDS. See Link to post: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/directory-users/200703.mbox/%3ca32f6b020703282254j66efa8d9o2c6bec6a130861d8@mail.gmail.com%3e Having Commons Daemon would allow ApacheDS and solutions for Enterprise Java applications to the FreeBSD platform in a way that they are available already on Linux. At present, my only options are Linux (hmmm...) or Window (ack!). Please let me know how I can help get this port rolling again or help to expand this business case so we can justify getting this important project rolling again. I would be quite happy to help in being a tester. Thanks for your time and interest!
