Just put all your nodes on 10.200.0.X . decide which one is the router,
and put ip masqurade on it. also run apache with proxy services.
you need no secondary interface. in fact, you cant do that since you have
to keep the 255.0.0.0 mask on it.
No can get to your masquraded ip's cause of the address translation done
on the router (which connects to the ADSL ).
I do that at home. It runs perfectly.
