Thanks for your response Matthew.  This has been my experience:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/ports/java/javavmwrapper]# make install clean
(installs OK)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/ports/java/diablo-jdk15]# make install clean
(installs OK)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/bean]# find / -name javaws
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/bean]# find / -name *javaws*
/usr/local/diablo-jdk1.5.0/man/man1/javaws.1

Am I missing something?

Brian
