Server on Home Network

[Pat Heidingsfelder]

I am currently using my daily used FP imac to serve a small website.  I 
was thinking of getting an older G3, maybe beige, or even a 71-8100, to 
put on the network to serve the site and free up the iMac.  I mostly 
want to do this to make things a little 'safer'.  I use DSL with a 
D-Link router, I have the firewall setup on the router.  I was thinking 
of using the G3 as a firewall also.  Could I hook it up between the 
modem and router?  maybe with a ethernet nic in and one out??  can this 
be done?  Fairly new to networks, so not sure of the  ins and outs.  
Thanks for any help or suggestions!!
