It's not in ports, but it compiles with ease. I use a FreeBSD 4.5 box as a
shared server between Windows world and Plan 9 world. It runs u9fs and
samba, and also compensates for my lack of a postscript printer. I
regularly ssh to it as it has no keyboard/screen.

And yes, I would prefer to have a Windows machine that spoke 9p2000.
