Second, maybe this is just semantics, but you do not need a proxy server. (did you mean connection sharing?) A proxy catches web requests and checks to see if it already has the page in its cache. This will speed up web access in some situations enormously but I've never thought the it was worthwhile for one or two people.Maybe I'm delusional, but I thought setting up a proxy server (like squid) and allowing access to my Windoze box would allow me to surf the web from the Windoze box without having to set up IP masquerading. Assuming I have the 2 machines plugged into a hub (I do already have a hub) and the uplink of the hub goes to the cable modem, and the 2 machines are via private IP LAN, I could configure my browser to retrieve web pages from the proxy server (the RH box), which would go out and get the web page off the Internet and send it to the Windoze browser. No?
