setup firewall/router/proxy

[Eric Brunner-Williams in Portland Maine]

Oki all,

If it isn't too much of a bother, someone asked me the same question,
but for a platform I'm unfamiliar with -- a 2.4.18-6mdk (Mandrake)
linux distro. As the target is not freebsd, I'll be happy with any
technical response, and off-list is probably better than on.

TiA,
Eric
