:-) Yes thanks, my iptables scripts already do lots of stuff with eth0
and ippp0.

However, I'm looking for a small QUIET box rather than having to reboot
mothers PC (normally win98) into linux every time I want to use one of
the other PC's on the lan to surf the web.

it's actually got a Fritz PCI (ye old BT speedway ones) card in that I
got for a tenner off ebay...
