Using a leased line or dial-up ?
PPP brings along its own NAT-part, whereas if you connect via a
isdn-router, you'll have to compile-in some directives into your kernel.

For ppp, take a look at the pedantic ppp primer, somewhere on the
freebsd.org site

NAT...
I think there's web-site out there, but it could be dead already :
www.dataiv.net
Also, try
man natd
for a brief explanation.

For a caching (http)proxy, try squid (in the ports-collection).
For other proxies, you'll have to resort to things like TIS FWTK...

Anyway - as Sue (or someone else on behalf of her) will point out sooner
or later, this is not really a question ideally asked on
freebsd-newbies.
Use another ML (freebsd-questions@freebsd.org), or look at
www.dejanews.com , do a power-search and restrict it to
comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc

cheers,
Rainer
