I suspect this should be a FAQ, but I couldn't find =the= answer at
either the Netscape or the FreeBSD web site...
I've got a 2.1-STABLE system with Netscape 3.01 installed. It works
just fine, with one exception. Java applets do not run. No useful
error messages or anything, just no workie.
I suspect it is some installation magic I missed. Big hint, an 'ls -cl'
implies Netscape is never opening the zipped class library located in
"~/.netscape/java_301".
Here's the environment:
