If you're really that inexperienced, I seriously doubt you'll be able to do a perfect job first up, no matter how much advice you get (no-one could). Pay a consultant to set the machine up for you is my advice, possibly even hire a good UNIX admin to work for your company. Starting an ISP is not something you can do without experience and understanding - it's a major undertaking and as you noted, if you screw up it will cost you.
