Well, Changing linux machine into a router is very easy Compile the Linux kernel with option CONFIG_IP_ROUTER I guess when you run make config ...there is an option on the lines .. Do you want to allow IP_FORWARDING between the n/w say Yes to this ..... All the settings can be done in TCP/IP section of ' make config' After that setting proper attributes for Net interfaces as Subnet Mask ... default gateway (using ifconfig etc.) you can configure it to be a router.
