search around here or go to howtoforge.com(i know there are walkthroughs for configuring gateways there). It may or may not be distro specific, but the steps will be similar regardless

There are also a number of gateway/firewall distros you can use

Untangle
ipcop
shorewall
smoothwall
clark connect

lots of choices out there.

also take a look at Ideco Gateway among others
