Dunno about Soekris, but I'm very happy with one of these
mini-box systems that cost about $250 with a 60GB SSD disk:

http://www.mini-box.com/MiniPC-Value-Systems

I got a fan but it doesn't need it.  It runs ordinary amd64 FreeBSD
9.1, installed from a thumb drive.  It provides DNS, DHCP, and some
other random services on my home network.

It's also my backup server, running a four drive ZFS raid with an
ESATA controller, so I bumped the RAM up to 4GB.  My only complaint is
that the PCI slot doesn't have a matching cutout on the back panel for
for the ESATA adapter I have to use a riser card and leave the cover
off, which looks stupid but looks fine. 

It's just like any other FreeBSD box do I don't see why it wouldn't
run jails perfecty well.

R's,
John
