I recently found out (at a job interview !) that some routers can
do a similar thing ... refrain from passing along certain types of
packet to certain machines.  You could, for example, block all
http connections except to the one machine you set up as a web
server and block all smtp connections to machines that shouldn't
deal with external email.

If you consider setting-up a router to be better than setting-up
yet another UNIX machine, you might try this.
