I have a similar question.  Is IP Masquerading the same solution for
networking say two, three, four computers (in a house or apartment),
so that they can all share files and resources, as well as share a
modem?

Also, the computers will most likely be mixed animals, i.e. Windows
and Linux.

I'm looking into some type of multiple modem, ISDN, cable modem or
something of the like connection, and having all computers in the
house or apartment share this device, but also share files between all
the computers, with NFS or samba or something similar.

Is IP Masquerading the solution for this also?
