I'm trying to get Netscape (any version 2.02 and up) running on FreeBSD
221014SNAP,
the ports collection brings no luck, in the packages it issn't available
either, so I went to the netscape site and got the unknown....bsd version and
the unknown...linux version.

Both don't work.


if I look at the freebsd port files there should be a netscape.bin file in the
distribution but it issn't there.


where did I go wrong?


thanks for any help,

Patrick
