I'll be a tad more helpful, but not much. Setting up a linux firewall/router
is pretty specific to your network layout/configuration. You probably will be
better off checking these links and going from there:
General Linux setup/config documentation:
http://www.tldp.org
This document is a bit dated in that it doesnt include iptables as one of the
firewalling software options, but it still is better than nothing.
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Firewall-HOWTO.html
The HOWTO at http://www.lartc.org is good too (hehe, had to give kudos)
Hope it helps!
