The way I would do it would be with iptables. If you are able to share your
connection with all computers now, you can tell iptables that only the input
IP is 192.168.0.3 (versus your ethernet device).
In my network, I allow all machines. I use:
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -j ACCEPT
but if I wanted to allow only one machine I would use:
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -s 192.168.0.3 -j ACCEPT
If you don't yet share your connection, then you'll want to read up on
iptables and probably masquerading. I used the IP-Masquerade-HOWTO file in
my /usr/share/doc/HOWTO directory (it's a little deeper) and created scripts
and config files according to the text.
