Cool, a question I can answer. In FreeBSD it is call NAT (Network Address Translation). The application I use is ipfilter. It is both a firewall and nat application. I was able to easily configure it and get it working. FreeBSD comes with a firewall and nat but through my ignorance I was never able to get those working. ipfilter has a mailing list, (I'm subscribed), and the folks are helpfull. Hope it helps.
