Take it in little bits:

1.      Get the new PC working with the DSL so you can access the
        internet from it.

2.      Choose a firewall package, e.g. shorewall (or just ipmasq).

3.      Perhaps also put something like dnsmasq on it.

4.      Hook the home network to it so that it is dual-homed 
        (one NIC to the DSL, one NIC to the home network switch).

5.      Ping and test.

Each  of these steps should be covered in many places:
        debian-reference
        HOWTOs
        shorewall-doc.

Good luck.

Doug.
