Yes. Ipchains allows you to forward packets from one machine to
another, so you can put many machines on one IP address. I tried
to get this to work, back when I had a little LAN set up here. I
read the HOWTOs but couldn't understand them. Then I got a Linux
book and it showed that you only need a few commands. I haven't
had a chance to try it, but it probably would work great with
BL1.
