Michael--

If you do a search for FreeBSD and ipfilter, you will find
several documents which cover setup from start to finish.
Obviously, you'll want to just read the rules portion.  Some
also discuss NAT.  I can't imagine that there is that much
difference b/w the various OS flavors of ipfilter.

Also, the O'Reilly _Building Internet Firewalls_ book has a lot
of info on ipfilter if IRCC.  Searching the O'Reilly non-catalog
site will also turn up a wealth of good stuff.
