You should take a look at the vtun port /usr/ports/net/vtun For the latest build/faq/configs look at http://vtun.sourceforge.net I'm currently using it to connect two diffrent lans over the internet between two freebsd firewalls. Works like a charm. Search the questions mailinglist on freebsd.org for a how-to on setting up the tunnel.
