Easy option is to ensure that a static route is configured on the Linux server
to route 192.168.10.0/24 to 192.168.1.1 (your server IP)

Given this restriction, the best option might be to ensure that anything 
received on FreeBSD server from 192.168.10.0 subnet is passed through NAT
to appear to originate from the FreeBSD server IP (192.168.1.1)

This would allow traffic initiated from LAN A to talk to LAN B but 
typically would not allow LAN B to initiate traffic to LAN A.

Unfortunately I have not used ipnat at all so cannot help in that aspect.

With ipfw/natd I would have two natd instances and use ipfw rules to
send packets to different divert sockets based on the IP address.
