from what i can tell (and based on my setup)
you need the address of the cablemodem...
if your ip is static, the the cablemodem's
probably is, too. if not, you're probably in
need of dhcp expertice, which i don't have. :)

presuming you're using a healthily-updated potato, (debian 2.2)
your /etc/network/interfaces should resemble
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
iface eth1 inet static
address 24.200.41.15
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 208.33.90.0
broadcast 24.200.41.255
gateway 24.200.41.cableModemIPnumber
then configure all your other networked boxes
to be 192.168.0.<2,3,4...> and have a default/
gateway/router of 192.168.0.1 (being your linux).

apt-get install ipmasq
boy will THAT save you some trouble!

make sure your linux can get to the web; try something
like
lynx http://www.rootprompt.org
once your 'ipmasq' package is installed and your ipchains
(or ipfwadm for slink users) rules are in place, then any
connect success you have on the linux box ought to be
reproducible on the windo~1 boxes. theoretically.
