	Yes.  You can install the Apache web server (which runs, if I
recall correctly, 51-52% of all Internet-visible web servers world-wide),
configure it for CGIs, and run that on the FreeBSD box.  If you're setting
someting like this up, I'd recommend editing the /etc/hosts file in order
to add a virtual DNS name to the box.  It will probably make things
easier.  Mine was "pandora.my.domain" for about a year.  It worked fine
and, since this machine was resolving DNS for my LAN, I could telnet to
pandora.my.domain, browse HTML files, test CGIs, etc.
