There is some alpha software available that supports passive ISDN cards
using the Siemens chipset.  It (currently?) supports Euro ISDN only.
I'll include the notice of the newest version below.

There is also a mailing list, namely freebsd-isdn@FreeBSD.ORG (don't be
mislead by the name, isdn4bsd does run with NetBSD, too).  Send mail to
majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG with "subscribe freebsd-isdn" in the body (_not_ the
subject) to be put on this list.

Hope it helps.

Ciao,
Wolfgang
