There are plenty of good books and Linux Ho-To Do's on line for what you want.
I suggest you start with the Linux documentation project web site.

Subject: Firewall/network in home: ok here is what i got to work with..
I plan on getting DSL.
I want run all Linux on machines, possible bsd on 1
machines i have:
1 p3/500
1 486/66
1 486/100
1 Sparc IPX
1 8088 XT
1 ethernet card
I want to setup private LAN and have a gateway machine that will
share the DSL bandwidth with machines in my private LAN
outside world should have no knowledge of machines behind my
gateway, they should only see my public static IP from DSL modem.
i want it impossible for anyone to telnet into my private LAN,
only way in i wantbe through secure ssh. i want setup 1 machine
to run apache web server. also i want setup my own domain (DSL
ISp said they can provide me the DNS name servers 1 & 2 I
need) but i nevr did this before and need help. also i want setup
DMZ machine , someone teold me this is secure but i dont
understand what DMZ machine is or how setup. i thought i can buy
10/100 Ethernet switch/router combo (has DHCP, NAT, 4 ports). i
saw the Linksys and NetGear ones. I also want bi-layered
firewall. firewall from gateway to DMZ machine, 2nd firewall from
DMZ machine to LAN. again i dont know how do this.
someone said i could run firewall on a machine , others say use
firewall on the hardware switch/router, which is best?
someone said another option instead of use hardware switcj/router
is to put 2 NICs in one machine and install Linux Router on
there and use a hub to connect machines in LAN. not sure which
option is better. i will have 800k down / 90k up if i go w/
Telocity DSL ($50/month_. is this sufficient to run my own
domain, mail server and web server and SQL datbase? Is this
sufficient bandwidth?
I heard if DSL fails i can setup redundant dial-in link (PPP) to
ISP but i dont know how do this and i think that would require
2nd phone line. is it true ADSL lets u talk on phone will u DSL
always connected?
SDG,
Zach
