I'm unfortunately unable to access the web right now, but if you go to www.freebsd.org and look under "tutorials" on the left hand column, go there and look at the ppp primer, it discusses "ip alasing" and "masquerading" a few pages in. I used that primer to set up masquerading on my system, so it worked kinda well.
