[dundee] DNS theory

[David R. Baird]

OK, up and running with Linux on my old Dell, and DHCP is working 
fine from the XP box, so I can ssh in from XP to Linux, and I can 
ssh and surf out from Linux to external sites. 

I understand (roughly) how the gateway machine can handle 
responses from the internet that originate from requests from a 
box on an internal network, but what I want to do now is set up 
an http server on the Linux box, and also ssh in to the box from 
outside, and I can't see how this is done. What sort of things 
would I need to set up to allow this? 

At the moment, the gateway is an XP box, but eventually I want to 
swap them round and use Linux as the gateway/firewall.
