The only difference now is that it's two NICs (one to the internal network and one to the cable modem) rather than a single NIC (to the internal network) and a phone modem (ppp via tun0). --> man natd is your friend and mine. I am using natd and the isc dhcp client to connect my home network to cable modem on road runner. -- When I was a kid I had to rub sticks together to multiply and divide numbers.
