Phill, Have a look at IP Masquerade while you'll at a go on the HOWTOs. Basically, you need to do these: 1.)Compile IPMasq, Firewall, IPForwading .... support into the kernel. 2.)Get the necessary proxy software, I used Squid. You might want to get "Junkbuster" as well. 3.)Setup the config files and you're ready to go.
