Is this for a home or business? Do you care to control what people view on the web? If you you want to control what people view on the web, setup a proxy server. You can use iptables for a firewall and routing. An easy to use iptables script is arno's-iptables and a common proxy server is squid. An easy to use web based configuration tool is Webmin.

this will help you with the iptables and port forwarding if you want to use that

In Mandrake all you need to do is start the Mandrake Control Center and click on Networking & Internet.
DrakConnect will set up your internet connection. DrakGW is for setting up Network sharing. DrakProxy sets up the proxy. Then Click on Security. DrakFirewall will setup the iptables firewall. All that and you never have to leave the Control Panel! |

[root@ABIT root]# echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward [root@ABIT root]# iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT [root@ABIT root]# iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE my rh9 box has a cable modem connection(eth0) and my local(eth1) ip is 192.168.0.1. you'll still have to install the squid rpm, then edit /etc/squid/squid.conf the link should contain enough to read about squid |
