support for natted ftp server and passive mode

Do any of the firewall products on FreeBSD provide support
for a natted ftp server sitting behind the FreeBSD FW.

Without having the ftp server advertise the external address
in its passive mode packet, in other words have the firewall
product look inside the packet and change the internal address
in the data portion of the packet to the external address.

Thanks,
Steve
