The short: I was able to get freenet to work on FreeBSD 4.7 using kaffe 1.0.7 downloaded and built from source using no ./configure options except --prefix
The long: I saw some posts here about various people having trouble with getting freenet to work on FreeBSD. Yahoo managed to eat the messages so I can't reply to them but I can offer how I managed to get freenet to work on FreeBSD 4.7 over this last weekend. First of all, I could not get a single java system from /usr/ports to work with freenet at all. All of the various versions of the Sun SDK that run under linux dumped core and kaffe 1.0.6 would actually run the precompiled binary I downloaded from the distribution archive. Unfortunately, I was not able to issue a single request as they all failed with NetworkError and nothing in the log files. Note that this is not a RNF and it is consistent with reports from other people. I finally got freenet to work with kaffe 1.0.7 which I downloaded from their website. I compiled it with the standard ./configure method, make, make install, and it fired right up and has worked with out incident since. I had to slighly modify the start-freenet.sh script to remove some command line args that was not present in the kaffe version of the java program. ===== AIM:rllybites Y!
