Did you:
1. unplug all Win$ machines from the router?
2. plug them into their own hub?
3. put two network cards in the linux box?
4. connect eth0 in the linux box to the internet (router, modem, whatever)?
5. connect eth1 in the linux box to the hub where the winbloze boxes are?
6. change the IP's of the Winbloze boxes to a 192.168.0.x series?
7. configure a rc.firewall script of some kind on the linux
box (suggest TrinityOS for example) to route packets between
eth0 and eth1?
