It will work just fine. Place your Linux machine with a ethernet port and
private address on your LAN and setup the PPP to dial on demand. Also
setup ip masquerading. Then whenever any machine on the network attempts
to access the internet it will dial up. If you have some idea that somehow
you can place more then one machine on the internet with a single IP and
all ports available to the world you are grossly mistaken.
Have one machine with whatever services you believe you want on the
internet and put it there. Then allow IP Masq to deal with the other
machines. Any other scheme you are thinking of is an invintation to
trouble, more trouble and massive ammounts of trouble.
