Here's quick and dirty Frox Proxy on FreeBSD 9.X
Please adjust it as per your requirement, I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you!
*********************************
# Server Side Settings
1. pkg_add -r frox
2. mkdir /usr/local/etc/frox
3. chmod 0755 /usr/local/etc/frox
# SetWorkDir in conf file to above Dir
4. cp /usr/local/share/examples/frox/frox.conf /usr/local/etc/frox/frox.conf
# Make changes as you like, for simple setup you can use Webmin.
# Please note that in FreeBSD do not enable BindtoDevice Option, Just put #
5. echo 'frox_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
6. nano /etc/pf.conf
# Add line below
       rdr pass proto tcp from any to any port ftp -> 192.168.1.1 port 2121
7. pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf
8. /etc/rc.d/pf restart
# Add frox in /etc/services
                            frox 2121/tcp
9. service frox restart

# User Side Settings
10. Filezilla > Edit > Settings > FTP-->FTP Proxy--->USER_at_HOST-->Proxy Host 192.168.1.1 > Press OK
# Done. I have tested this setup with FileZilla client# 3.5.3(win-xp) and it's working. :)
