I just helped a co-worker set up FreeBSD with ipfw/natd on his home computer. He is a recent Linux convert and he had a couple problems. Here is how we solved them. It appears your config is much like his and I made sure he had the firewall set to open while testing and gateway_enable is rc.conf was set to YES. That did not help, so I figured he did not turn on the proper support in the kernel. You want things like IPDIVERT turned on. Also turn on all the good firewall stuff. If that does not work, I can work with you to make this work for you. I have done this quite a bit lately. I have some good config files which are pretty good now.
