My preference would be to use OpenBSD for this sort of functionality. But I
understand that you
can put Darren Reed's IPF on FreeBSD and this will do what you want.
I would get a public IP address for the server and do a static mapping to 192.168.2.0
on the
firewall or the internet router.
well you have many options with freebsd.
1. IPNAT using IPFILTER
2. NATD using IPFW
3. FTWK (/usr/ports/security/fwtk or
/usr/ports/net/fwtk)
This is basiclly a set of proxies.
Lets go with ipfilter.
First load the ipfilter module or build a kernel with
it installed. kldload ipl will install
