I am about to acquire a second machine and install a basic network
(using ethernet?).  I believe there are benefits to be had from setting
up a gateway and running a second machine through this to connect to the
internet.  My ISP uses dynamic IP addressing so I believe I need to
learn about IP forwarding.
Can anyone point me to a HOWTO or anywhere that could give me more
information?  I am currently using RH 4.2

regards, 
 Nathan.
