Linuz,
I'm sure you have your reasons for not wanting to use IP-masqueradin.
But without knowing them, it seems apparent that IP-Masq'ing would work
perfectly in your scenario, particularly if your ISP assigns you only one
Internet-routable IP address. It's either that or some sort of proxy server,
which would likely be less flexible.
Regards,
Jason Sloderbeck
