Install two ethernet cards ... one having a public ip and the other having a
private ip (which will feed the rest of your network). BTW, a private ip -
192.168.1.xxx / 10.xxx.xxx.xxx and 172.16..172.31. - nothing else (like say
160.160. etc)
> Will Linux accept a dynamic ip from a DHCP server running on NT?
Yes. Eth.Net runs NT servers - and lots of people are connecting to eth boxen
using dhcp assigned IP's.
See the cablemodem howto on linuxdocs.org for more.
