    Hmmm, look at that statement. You cannot load both OSs and run both at
    the same time unless you get vmware. Then you cannot route doze
    traffic through linux.

    Not on what you have explained so far.

    You can take another box and load linux and two nics and have it do
    Network Address Translation (NAT) and masquerade your doze box behind
    it and provide a firewall.

    You might look at the discriptions at http://www.distrowatch.com
