If I remember the start of this thread correctly, you are connected to a
firewall before you hit your ISP. As long as your firewall, or routers
upstream block the private IPs both ways, about the only security risk is
from other machines in your school going through the Linux box. If I
remember right, you are not using the Linux machines as firewall anyway.
