Normally, you'd just set the box up with two interfaces. One with an
unused IP on your internal network (which would be the default route
for the other boxen on the network). The other interface goes out to
the Cisco router.

Do you really mean that? It's possible, but rarely desirable to have it
*completely* transparent, as that would mean not decrementing TTL, which
is a route you really don't want to go down unless you know exactly what
you're doing...
