And I have two windows machines sitting behind a linux machine which is
doing the actual networking?

Which reminds me, does anyone know if there are any guides anywhere I
can get on how to set up my linux machine for the best way to do this.

I.E. Getting it to download my email and serve it locally via pop3, same for
newsgroups, cache DNS and web pages etc.
I have the documentation for all of these things separately but wondered if
anyone knows of any good guides that might be quicker to read.
