For a really quick and easy way to get your linux box routing for your home
network, get firestarter. I have used firestarter for quite some time, and
was really surprised when IBM Developer Works had an article on using it to
jumpstart your linux firewall. It is quick and easy, and sets up your basic
scripts for you, and then you can edit and configure as you deem neccessary.

Good Luck,
Lahoma Lemanski
