Ok, here's what i have :

4 Comp :
A) 1 p4 2.0 gz, dual boot with WinXP Home and RH 7.3
B) 1 p200 MHz, 64 mb of RAM with RH 7.3
C) 1 Atlhon 1.2 GZ 128 MB of Ram Win98 / WinXP Pro / RH 7.3
D) 1 Celeron 450 With Win 98

1 dsl connection


What i would like to do :
Firewall
Possibly a Honeypot
And my 2 other comps on the network


So i would like to make something like that :

--> D
|
INTERNET -> [DSL MODEM] -> [B] ------------ + -> C
|
--> A
So the comp B would be my firewall
The comp C could be the honey pot
The comp A could log the honey pot
The comp D could also log the honey pot

Here are my questions :

What would i need (hardware) to do this?
(i think i will need 2 network cards for my firewall, and 3 others for my other comp. Some RJ45 and a Hub.)

Is it possible to log an Honeypot properly with this type of network without having my other computers in danger?

I also want to share my Internet connection of course.

Last question : Is there something wrong with this network? :)

Thanx !

Ok, the picture didn't work but the Comp D and A should be connected with the "+" sign near the C comp, not on the internet of course...

You mean like:

|
INTERNET -> [DSL MODEM] -> [B] ------------ + -> C
|
--> A
Use the CODE tags for diagrams and whatnot that require exact spacing.

Don't know about logging the honeypot and security issues with the rest of you network......otherwise box B would be setup for NAT/IPMASQ for the rest of your network. You may need to add a third NIC to box B to bridge to the honeypot.....but that depends on how one is supposed to break into the honeypot. Like I said, don't know much on how honeypots are to be setup.

Thanx for the "Code" tip and The suggestion about the 3rd network card.. But unfortunatly, i don't know much about honey pot either.. :|
I bought a book but i just want to know if it's possible to make one with what i've got.. If not, i won't read the book now and wait till i'll have the proper hardware.
