If he is using it as a gateway for other machines he will still need 
NAT. Try this to open the fire wall up:

public="xl0"
private="xl1"
loopBack="lo0"

ipfw add 00100 allow all from any to any via $private
ipfw add 00110 allow all from any to any via $loopBack

#
# Net Address Translate (NAT) incomming packets
#
ipfw add 00120 divert natd ip from any to any in via $public

#
# Net Address Translate (NAT) out going packets
#
ipfw add 01000 divert natd ip from any to any out via $public
ipfw add 01010 allow ip from any to any

I just clipped these from my rules, thats why the weird numbering 
scheme.
