Hey ;)

I've spent a while trying to find a solution to what i want, and i havn't found anything! (Probably my poor searching skills)

I currently have 4 PC's. 1 is my Server, which is a Fileserver, and also runs DNS and DHCP to my 3 workstations.

What i want is access to the internet through my server so i can do some bandwidth control. Right now all my workstations default gateway's are pointing to the Router. (DLink Wireless DI-524) I want the workstations to access the internet through my server. (Running Windows Server 2003) I have 2 NIC's, I'm just not quite sure what i need to do to Accomplish this. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Two basic ways to do this. One is a special router/switch with the software built it. The other is sofware based. You can get windows mostly for purchase. You can get bsd and linux/solaris based setups that can run as a VM.

I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you goober.
