I want to create a FreeBSD port for JDK 1.1.? based on whatever the latest and greatest set of (manually applied) patches is. Then you could create the corresponding FreeBSD package, making it easy to quickly get the JDK up and running on other FreeBSD machines (this assumes you already have the source from Sun of course). Can someone recommend what the 'latest and greatest' set of FreeBSD patches is (and which version of JDK they are for)? Any gotchas? Thanks, -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com
