This could be your firewalling on the FreeBSD system. Have you checked that?
Have you tried replacing the firewalling temporarily with a rule to permit
everything?
One thing to remember is that traceroute uses UDP packets.
(the best way to safely change FreeBSD ipfw rules is in a script run once
from cron - then you're 100% sure the script won't be killed when it tries
to print output just after it does an ipfw flush [at which point writing
any network packet will cause a problem])
