I am a newbie to Linux firewall.  I downloaded the Dachstein image and installed in a P100 PC with 64MB RAM  and two Linksys Ethernet cards.  Every thing works fine connecting to a DSL modem on one end and my home PC on the other end of the firewall box.
 
I have two spare 3Com 3C509B-TPO Ethernet ISA cards.  I want to add the 3Com cards to the Linux firewall and have the one Linksys card and two 3Com cards working as a Hub.  This way I can have a local three computers network that can talk to each other and share one ISP IP address for Internet access.
 
Is it feasible to add the hub function into a floppy disk firewall box?  Did anyone try this configuration before?  What do I have to change and add to the network configuration module to add the Hub functions?
