You posted less than an hour ago. If you want a 24 hour support service then get your wallet out.

Don't double post it is bad etiquette!

You can share your connection with only one ip. Just configure your iptables rules to forward from that ip address not from all connections on the one interface.

thanks...i'm a rookie in linux, where can i find the iptables? i'm just using the internet connection wizard from mandrake

The chances are that Mandrake has made it's own set of rules. I would suggest that you remove them as root:
iptables -F -t nat
iptables -F

Then follow one of the many iptables tutorials and set your rules manually.

can you give me some samples of how to accept connection from 192.168.1.51 but reject a connection from 192.168.1.2?

it would really help!

about the monitoring software any idea? so that i can monitor who is connected to my connection?
