I run it on an IPX and an SS1. But, I was thinking that kindof keeping it in the family would be nice. How many folks are actually working on an FBSD port? What sources currently exist that could be rounded up from here and there? I use the IPX for web testing, but the SS1 could be unloaded on its hd1 and maybe used as a porting platform from SunOS or OpenBSD.
