We have deployed a servlet-based application using the native jdk1.2.2 without any problems. We recently migrated to linux-jdk1.3.0 since we needed some new rmi stuff, IIRC. The ony problem we ever encountered was a bug in the linux emulation wrt signal handling, fixed some time ago. We are going to deploy linux-jdk1.3.0/tomcat/jBoss/EJBs in the near future and things look good so far. -past To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
