Or, you could have one of your linux boxes do all of this for
free...Derek
Glidden sent me an iptables shell script that does the trick for me:
I've got
ppp0/eth0 (the same thing, the way dsl works) going to the rest of the
world,
and eth1 set at a static IP address and connected to my hub...on your
linux
box, you'd also have to install pppoe software, available as a .deb, or
from
roaringpenguin software...I'd be happy to send what Derek sent me, if
you
need it, just let me know!
