 Well, via the chooser you can only access appletalk servers, so unless
you put an appletalk server ( which you could setup via TCP/IP ) onto the
fBSD machine then the only way would be to just setup an ftp client on the
mac. 

 I've attempted to setup an appletalk onto a fBSD machine but had no luck
in doing so. ( but my skills are very lacking ).
