I currently run with no major problems the following on FreeBSD(2.1R):

netscape (1.1-3.0b2)see note below
Netscape communications server(the one without security)

The only execption is the java in netscape 3.0b2 won't work right initally(
a small fix is needed, 2 commands), due a problem with one of the X font
distributions.  As  I said before these productes work fine.
