Hi, My suggestion is that you set up DHCP and DNS in your linuxbox along with iptables as firewall. Use NAT for the clients with a granular rule base in iptables. Do not allow SMTP, DNS etc through the firewall. I suggest that you set up outgoing rules for defined traffic and deny by default. You can as an option setup caching in proxy-server (Squid?) to use your Internet connection more efficient.

Hi , I am doing a pilot project on my small LAN which I would later want to implement for my cybercafe which has 50 Nodes connected on a 128Kbps lease line. I need a suggestion what will be a better option a DHCP based setup or a DC type of a set up?All my nodes are Windows 98 nodes. Secondly?Is it advisable to use NAT with some port restrictions? or have a Squid caching server?I understand squid has problems with MSN/Yahoo voice based services? Pls advice.
