[SGVLUG] Preventing certain Machines from Internet

I was wondering if anyone knows of an existing project where the following can be acheived:

List of hardware:

two 8 port hubs
one fairly new IBM compatible PC with two NICs (acting as filter)
one DSL Modem and connection
8 IBM compatible workstations

Notes:  From one of the workstations, be able to limit the access on any number of the 8 workstations so that Internet access would be completely excluded.  All this without affecting the browse-ability of other workstations on the LAN (with File sharing and Printer sharing).  The machine names and IP Addresses would be known.

I think that this type of software would fill a very common need in very small businesses (less than 10 employees).

Any ideas?

Arthur
