Using MonMotha's firewall script to build safe Internet sharing with Debian GNU/Linux (LinuxOrbit)

LinuxOrbit has this tutorial on building firewalls on a Debian system. "This tutorial will give you the necessary steps to turn one of your old PCs into a firewall with IP Masquerading, using a popular Linux distribution. I will leave it to you to get and install Debian onto your machine and work out connectivity to your ISP, then I will guide you through a kernel compile and install - which is necessary to enable features in the 2.4.x series kernels which allow your Linux machine to act as a firewall."
