Why fake? You can set on all internal interfaces the same public address
as used on external one.

For internal interfaces only. For external you don't need to.

Ok, I'm doing it using following additional rules in /etc/network/interfaces
for internal interfaces:
up ip route del 192.168.0.0/28 dev ethx
up ip route add 192.168.0.x dev ethx
up echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/ethx/proxy_arp
and for external additional are only:
gateway x.x.x.x
up echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/ethx/proxy_arp
and I'm setting the same address and netmask on all interfaces.

On firewal and all servers.

Not yet - you need also:
echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

It should work. That depends of your iptables rules ;)

Yes.
