Just a follow up with more info.
Set 2 vms and booting from 9 release cd using live system option.
Host system is stable/9, vbox 4.0.14:
Per the handbook setup bridging on firewall_vm that has no IP, and only
two interfaces [em0 - external, and em1 - internal networking]
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-bridging.html
On client_vm, em0 is connected to internal network and should pass through
that bridge, but I get nothing:
client_vm -> internal network -> em1[bridge vm]em0 -> internet
]Peter[
on bridge vm, doing dhclient bridge0 gets nothing, doing dhclient em0
gets IP....
