No need for 3 out, that's what a hub or switch is used for.
A better suggestion would be to have 1 in / 1 out. Your ISP connection
is going to the 'in', and your 'out' (LAN) goes to the hub/switch,
and then all your other PCs would connect to the hub/switch instead
of your proxy computer.
With this scenario, you could use PMFirewall suggested by others, which
uses ipchains to setup the proxying.
Thanks... Dan.
