You're quite welcome to take a look - this is the first time up for me 
with FreeBSD, ipf/ipfw/pf and VPNs - to date I have used iptables and 
FreeSWAN on Linux (settled on pf).

Setup scripts for the tunnel are at:

http://scorpion.sorbs.net/ICMP/ipsec-stealth.sh.txt   (this is the VPN 
server)
http://scorpion.sorbs.net/ICMP/ipsec-oblivion.sh.txt  (this is my home 
machine where the mulitple nets are)
