hello folks,
 Sorry for writting in english, I haven't got my box to talk/write japanese yet,
 I am running vanilla installation of FreeBSD and a bit stuck with getting it
 to support japanese keyboard/fonts. I've checked www.jp.freebsd.org and it
 looks like you have your own distribution which supports all these things by default.
 But the question is: is there any way to localise vanilla FreeBSD (4.x) box?

 So far I was unable to locate any manuals/papers describing these procedures
 in english, and unfortunately I am not able to read japanese on the moment
 (chicken-egg problem :), to read it I need to setup japanese fonts, and to
 setup japanese fonts I need to read the manual first :-)), so any hints,
 guidelines or advices would be appreciated mucho! :)


 cheers
 -Fyodor
