This is my setup at home
Linux box with two NICS
5 port hub
eth0 (the first NIC) is attached to the cable modem
eth1 (the second NIC) is attached to port 1 on the hub with a ip of
10.100.100.1
I have ipforwarding turned OFF
ipmasqurading turned ON
have the sifi firewall package installed along with tix (perinoid!)
sifi can be found at www.freshmeat.net
the windows box has a NIC that is also attached to the 5 port hub with a
ip of 10.100.100.13
here is a diag of my layout (dont laugh ;))

also check the linux howtos under /usr/doc
if you did not instll them hop over to
www.sunsite.unc.edu and look for a link to LDAP (Linux Documentation
Project)
Hop this has helped
