Several months ago I installed FreeBSD on a spare machine in my office to provide certain individuals in the company I work for with full time Internet access.  We have been given 24 IP addresses from our up line ISP.

I am now in the process of installing a full blown network for our entire organization (approximately 60 users).  I have chosen MS NT 4.0 as my network operating system.  In order to ensure security for my network server, I have made the decision to not run the TCP/IP protocol on the NT server.  Further, I do not want to use the NT server as my webserver.  I am very happy with the FreeBSD server.

The problem that I have is that I do not have enough IP address to give out to the rest of my users for Internet access.  I could bug my up line ISP for these address; however, I really do not want to allow my users Internet access.  All I really want is to give them a way to send and receive Internet email.

Is it possible to add additional IP address to the FreeBSD server that will allow my users to connect their workstations to this machine and go no further?  I am not a Unix guru and have very little knowledge of hardcore networking issues.

If you could give me some guidance I would be very appreciative.

Thanks
