They are *specifically* built to run *BSD and Linux.  Anything else 
won't run.

A common use for the Soekris and WRAP boxes is to run m0n0wall 
(http://www.m0n0.ch/wall/) which is a BSD-based firewall distribution 
that (currently) uses FreeBSD 4 as a base.

BTW, the Soekris folks also make BSD-supported PCI and minipci crypto 
cards, also frequently used with m0n0wall for VPN acceleration.
