While not as easy for me, I was referring to the bad dudes.  It is still
unixy so all the basics apply.  As I do this for a living it was easy for
me to replicate this in my personal setup.  Though, as it turns out, I was
doing this personally before I did it professionally.

"One of the primary focuses of the NetBSD project has been to make the
base OS extremely portable. This has resulted in NetBSD being ported to a
large number of hardware platforms. NetBSD is also highly interoperable,
implementing many standard APIs and network protocols, and emulating many
other systems' ABIs."

I stand corrected.  However, they do have excellent network support.
