Yes, that did the trick. The FreeBSD-box is up and running and
everything works as it should. Now i'm glad that the FreeBSD-box
will not be trashed :) and Linux won't find it's way to this customer.
I've written a little script that cycles through ranges of IP-adr.es
and arp's them to a specific ethernet-adr. (the one of the router) at
bootup.

Thanks again to all the people on this list for their help.
