Connecting All Workstations of a LAN to Internet with One IP Address

Hi there!

I have a LAN (a few Win95-based computers connected to a hub over
NetBEUI). My ISP is about to connect me (i.e., only ONE of the
computers in my LAN, after installing a second Ethernet board on that
computer) to the Internet via his network, giving me ONLY ONE IP
ADDRESS.

My Question is...

(1)   How can I access the Internet from the other workstations of my
LAN (without investing in new hardware)?

(2)   Can I just connect the ISP cable to my hub and configure my LAN
somehow to access Internet using the single IP address he gives me,
from all the workstations? How do I do that?...

My ISP won't give me IP addresses for the other computers on my LAN :)

Thanks,
Chen
