I'm looking for some general info on setting up a linux network ... I
understand the basics of TCP/IP and ethernet,  but I've got no expereince
in something like this.  Basically I'm setting up a network on which only
one machine will have an externally-visible IP address,  and some of the
others may get masqueraded through it,  but I'm mostly concerned that the
machines be able to talk amongst themselves.

For example:  Is it better to buy an ethernet hub than to simply put a
couple of cards in the gateway machine?  Are there other considerations?

The gateway machine will also have to be a news/mail/web server,  'cuz
it's the only one anybody outside can see... 

If anyone can point me in the direction of some good docs for something
like this,  I'd be appreciative.

                                                        Will
