Ken,

I have to put my 2c in here... Are you really, REALLY sure that you want to 
do this?  Please keep in mind that all of the security of your linux 
machine will be lost on the windows machine.  If you want to see a good 
example of what I mean, connect a windows machine directly through a modem to:
www.grc.com
and go to the "raise shields" section.  (You won't see the security issues 
as clearly through your linux machine, but you should try from the linux 
box also.  I found some things that I had overlooked.)

That web site belongs to "Steve Gibson" of Gibson Research, the makers of 
"Spinrite".  I don't use the product, nor is this a pitch for it, but I 
have known of Steve's technical expertise for many years.  Check it out.
