Since Java is available FreeBSD (the Sun JDK 1.1.5 is available at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/jdk115/jdk115/), I would believe any of the Java Mobile Agent Facilities should work on FreeBSD. In the case of Voyager, the UNIX version is simply a compressed tar file containing the Java archives and sample sources, which is just as easily uncompressed and unpacked as any other tar archive... In particular, I briefly used Voyager 1.0.1 on a previous JDK (1.1.2?) on my FreeBSD 2.2-stable machine last fall. I only tried compiling an example Voyager agent class without actually executing it or a Voyager server, but it should have worked had I tried executing it.
