Most important are the general TCP/IP things, the gateway, route add default max in my case.....on moritz. I have a /usr/local/etc/rc.d/route.sh file for this. FreeBSD comes with a ftp server right out of the box and when you install you are asked if you want anonymous ftp. See also /stand/sysinstall, if you want to do this later.
