If you are dialing in with a modem, ppp includes the 
ability to do NAT.  "man ppp" will explain it.  It also 
has basic firewall capability built in.

If you are using something that interfaces via Ethernet
(e.g. DSL or cable modem), I think "man ipnat" will get 
you pointed in the right direction.  I've never used it, 
so someone else will probably have a pointer to better 
information if you need it.

Good luck.
