There is a little bit more to it than just sharing your connection, you also would like to make sure that the machines behind the RH9 box are protected.
If you use something like Webmin (http://www.webmin.com) you can use their "Firewall" Module to enable NAT and share your connection rather easily without the need of getting into the "nitty gritty" of it.
