Can some kind soul point me in the right direction? It comes with the basic system, not the ports, so everything should be ready to go - the only complication is if you have re-compiled your kernel without the 'pseudo-device tun 1' line (in which case you'll just have to put it back in and re-compile!) There's a good expanation of how to set it up in the handbook, which is in both plain text and HTML in /usr/share/doc/handbook/ (or http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ for the latest version).
