I could be wrong, but try to look in the ports collection for SOCKS software and else look on www.freshmeat.net to look at diverse projects. Try to find the homepages and read them carefully. And if you found a great product which we don't have in our ports tree you are always welcome to make your own port or alert ports@freebsd.org about this great package and let us know of any tweaking you need to do to get it to work.
