Have you played with pkgng at all?  It's a bit new to use in production
just yet, although reports from testers have been pretty positive so
far, and it's perfectly fine for evaluation purposes.

It will solve your main problem of not being allowed FTP traffic, as you
can select a package repository accessible through HTTP -- like
the main test repository http://pkgbeta.freebsd.org/freebsd-9-amd64/lates=
t

See http://wiki.freebsd.org/pkgng

	Cheers,

	Matthew
