We are moving the startup daemon to the excellent Tanuki Wrapper which
supports FreeBSD, so this may solve this problem entirely.  I am not sure if
Tanuki Wrapper supports any specific version since their docs just say
FreeBSD.  We are targetting 1.5.1 for this change, but I admit that I have
not set up FreeBSD as one of the test environments so I will try to do that
this week as we prepare for the release some time later this month.

Thanks,
Chris

Found out how to build jsvc for FreeBSD (sans Ports). This required a very
small hack in the configure script to detect FreeBSD 6.x. The configure
script is currently only set up to detect FreeBSD 4.x. My tests so far
with
tomcat shows that it works just fine.

Having an official port of jsvc to FreeBSD will come eventually but will
probably take quite some time to get developed and therefore is probably
not
worth waiting for.

Is it possible to create a document to explain how to get ApacheDS working
by hand with a user compiled jsvc on FreeBSD?

Thanks,
Tim
