    Hi Sven!

    In essence, yes. Just make sure that your machine forwards its connection
    (see sysinstall, network configuration - gateway operation), then install
    BIND9 and a DHCP server and you're on. You will have to edit the config
    files but the comments are very well done - you can get your LAN hooked
    up in less than an hour, all included. If you need help, just le me know:
    I did it to share our ADSL connection (Ethernet modem).

    You can also install a firewall (ipfw works fine) and allow some services
    in the DHCP domain only (FTP, etc.)

    Hope it helps
       Olivier
