Hello!

In current (updated on Monday), I installed jdk-1.4.2p2-with_ipv6 from
ports, and after installation it suggests putting a link for a
Mozilla/Firefox Java plugin to an appropriate place.

Yet, it doesn't work (tried the interactive map stuff from www.map24.de,
with mozilla-firefox-1.0.4). Nothing too important for me, just that
the suggestion is worded as if it would work. Would I have better
chances with the 1.5 JDK?

From DESR:
 with_ipv6
   Build the jdk/jre with ipv6 support. When the jdk/jre is built
   with this flavor, java will create only ipv6 sockets by default.
   Since ipv4 to ipv6 address mapping is disabled on OpenBSD,
   using ipv4 addresses will fail. Consequently, you may only
   use ipv6 addresses or you can start java with
   -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true and can only use ipv4
   addresses.

Since you've compiled with ipv6, you can try adding
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true to file:///usr/local/jdk-1.4.2/jre/ControlPanel.html -> Advanced Tab ->
Java Runtime Parameters

Also, I've had one person report that setting ulimits was not enough, they had to change login.conf for their login class
instead (IIRC).
