Yes, we do here at Walnut Creek CDROM on a FreeBSD 2.1 box (see https://www-secure.cdrom.com/). We had absolutely no trouble generating our secure key, and I tend to suspect that the ISP in question was suffering from something different than "OS incompatibilities", namely misconfiguration. If you need to talk to the guy who set up our own server at any point, I'd be happy to put you in touch with him. Again: The current release of FreeBSD (2.1) works *just fine* with the Netscape commerce server and we ourselves use it. -- Jordan
