From: Ronald A. Yacketta
This is my setup at home.
winblows 98 with a 10/100 nic connected to a 5 port autosensing hub
the tcp/ip settings are set such that I have assigned it the ip of
10.100.100.13
and the dns server is my firewal box (10.100.100.1)
The firewall box has two 3c509 nic's one is connected to the cable modem
and the other is
connected to the 5 port auto sensing hub.
I have ip forwarding turned on.
I am currently using a combination of isinglass (ipchains) and fwtk.
if you need more specifics email me offline.

I am running Mandrake 6.0, and I can connect the box to the 'Net using my
cable modem. What I would like to do is make the Linux Box a
firewall/server
for other computer's downstream. I have Samba installed ( but not used yet
).
What other hardware besides NIC's ie: 5 Port Hub, or ??, would be needed
to
do this. Also what kinda of anti-hacking security is available for a setup
like this.
TIA
