Hey,
Disclaimer: I'm not familiar with your network topology,
Which seems to be not trivial if you have more then one
NIC (fxp0 and ed0), hence I might be wrong. :)

Your problem as I see it is that you can't communicate
with your DNS, so you can't resolve freebsd.org, so you
can't ping it. Try pinging 216.136.204.21, that's the
resolved address. 

Your Firewall defaults to "deny". That's a good thing.
However, due to your "grep deny" I don't see any rule
that explicitly allows you to communicate with the rest
of the world, or your DNS for that matter.

I can help you off-list if you'd mail me the entire rulebase
and a your network topology.

Best Regards,
