thanks for your answer.
dhcp isn't involved in this case - all hosts have static ip-s.
but dhcp or static, the problem remains the same.
you have talked about permitting certain ip-s to pass through the
firewall. but how exactly do i implement this filtering scheme? what
iptables options do i need? what parameters do i add to the SuSEfirewall
script? suppose i want to share the connection with 172.16.0.5 and
172.16.0.10, but not with any other machine on the network. what do i do
to implement this?

While I don't see it in the SUSE firewall configuration in Yast, you can
set up rules based on IP. There may be other graphical configuration
tools that support this, but if worst comes to worst, you can always
edit IPTables manually.
