Can splunk run on Nokia's IPSO firewall OS

My customer wants to collect logs from the OS of thier Nokia Checkpoint Firewall as well as syslog from the firewal engine. Research shows the OS is called IPSO and based on Free BSD.

Does anyone know if splunk will run natively on this OS and if so what version should they download?

I sort of doubt it, but please note there is a Checkpoint API for retrieving the logs, and there are Splunk scripted inputs that use that API to capture them, e.g.: http://www.splunkbase.com/apps/All/3.x/app:CheckPoint+OPSEC+LEA+Application+for+Linux

You may want to give a try to our FreeBSD port, but to my knowledge it has not been tested on what I imagine is a stripped and customized version of that OS.

You can find the download links for the 32bit and 64bit versions of Splunk for FreeBSD 6.x on our download page :
