Have a look at the cpdup port in combination with NFS or the rsync port. If you feel this is to slow for you, you might be satisfied by coda (in the port collection as well), however, I found coda not to be exactly what I'd need in our case (replicating webservers as well) so if anyone knows about a fast solution (which would need direct interaction with the kernel, I presume, I'm still hoping that a network block device will be written for FreeBSD so I could do network based RAID as the Linux crowd does), I'm all ears.
