Masqing is cool, all right. It just seems to me (and I'm certainly
no expert) that this system is more complicated than it needs to be, by
at least one device. If you're going to be doing masqing on the linux
box anyway, it could just as well be set up as its own router, and you
wouldn't need the Cisco at all. You'd just plug eth0 straight into the
DSL modem, and eth1 into the hub--and it's in this sort of application
that I'd prefer going with a separate, dedicated Linux box as a router.
Whether the info is there to properly configure the Linux box is, of
course, a separate issue.
