You will need to run NATD to translate your 10.x.x.x addresses to a real internet address and reverse the process on the way back. Having a single interface for the gateway is not a good idea as anyone on your local cable segment can mess with your 10.x.x.x machine. I would recommend that you get another nic for the gateway. You then have on nic for the internal network and one for the cable modem internet. You can get natd to work with one nic but it will be harder. man natd has all you need to know for the two nic setup. Search the questions mail archives for the single nic setup. -- When I was a kid I had to rub sticks together to multiply and divide numbers. A calculator was a job description.
