Hmmm... the keywords here are "Static NAT".
Start with the natd(8) manual page. That should give you a handle on
the terminology used for the different concepts. There's basically
three possibilities to do what you want:
ipfw(8) + natd(8)
ipf(8) + ipnat(8)
ppp(8)
The ppp(8) option of course, only applies if you're using PPP in some
form for your internet connectivity. Otherwise, use which ever one of
the other two suits you best.
Cheers,
Matthew
