Are you trying to use your FreeBSD box as a firewall (IE, is the FreeBSD
box hooked up to the network and you want to hook the PC to the BSD box to
get network access on the PC).  If that is the case, look for a program
called "SLiRP" which allows you to quickly and easily connect computers
through yours.
