It is not 'BSD based [wish it was]  but rather than reinvent the 
wheel, I would strongly recommend you try out  IP-Cop 
http://ipcop.org/A mere 20MB download gets you a CD ISO image 
that installs the whole Linux based firewall on a PC.  Up to 4 
interfaces, web configuration, traffic statistics, snort, transparent 
squid proxy, DHCP, VPN,  just about anything you would probably want.

From FreeBSD area of specialized firewalls:
Based on 4.x/ipf,ipfw etc. there is m0n0wall (http://www.m0n0.ch/wall/).
Based on 6.x/pf etc. there is pfSense (http://www.pfsense.com).

From Linux area of specialized firewalls there is also Shurdix 
available (http://www.shurdix.org/).

Thank you in advance, I spent the greater part of my afternoon breaking
things in the OS :.


Chapter 26 of the FreeBSD handbook [1] gives an introducion to this 
topic. If you deceide to use pf then I suggest to read the documentation 
from the OpenBSD website [2].

It's all in the FreeBSD
handbookhttp://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/advanced-networking.html
Think of the handbook as a set of tutorials, not as a big boring book
that has to be read cover-to-cover.
