Do you have any firewalls enabled on any of the box's? Can you ping the FreeBSD box from other box's? What does a packet sniffer show when you try to ping it or get ping'd from other box's? Are packets actually being send and recieved? Is the switch/hub dodgy? Try chaning ports to a port you know to work. Is there any encryption running over the network?
