I run most of my WAN stack (apache, php, etc) from the Joyent pkgsrc
repository, which is very straightforward to get running and keep
updated on OmniOS.
For DLNA I used to run mediatomb from a self-compiled instance, but
have since swapped over to NFS shares, relying on a more capable media
player (OpenElec).
I also run a Linux KVM instance for the stuff that is "just too
difficult" (eg. crashplan, grafana3, etc).
