Might be... see /usr/ports/net/mars_nwe.

limited in what Novell software you could use.  This is not necessarily
a bad thing.  Most of the FreeBSD services are, IMO, better than
Novell's offerings, and the OS itself is more robust.  But it could be a
hassle to support.

For a business, I wouldn't do it that way.  I would likely use Samba
or even NFS instead.  It depends on what you need it to do.
