I've got an ugly windows nt with a database and a web server

I'm thinking about protecting it and its internal network
with a linux. There will be a firewall, proxying the
internal querys (www, etc) to the internet.

The problem is that the nt holds cgi's written in visual
basic. My intention is masquerading the network and
adding rules in the linux box for letting access to
the nt web server inside.


internet ---- fw ------- internal net masqueraded
			 nt web server masqueraded

Is that possible ?

Another idea is configure squid listening in the port 80
of the firewall and passing the requests to the nt server
inside. What about this ?
