 From what I have heard, it is a pain. Because freebsd isn't one of the 
"download and go" platforms for java, and there are some issues with 
recompiling the source on freebsd, *I think*. Not positive though, but I 
remember reading something about silliness of java on freebsd.

Good luck.

ps. Java is slow and ugly. :P
