Hello, Does the following make sense? We have DSL here. I'm thinking of putting Linux or a box with two ethernet cards. One card would be connected to the DSL modem. The other card would be connected to our network. The linus machine would run a firewall and also distribute internet traffic to the other computers. The DSL modem now does the distributing. In addition, I would like to telnet into the Linux machine from myl Windows computer and run several instances of Lynx concurrently, so I could study different subjects or courses on the Web without losing my place, as I do if i try to use Internet Explorer. Where could I get good firewall software> I remember that Internet-sharing software is available from Roaring Penguin. How would this integrate with firewall software? Thanks.
