If you connect the M10 to the hub, to keep the group relatively secure it's
a good idea to run two protocols: TCP/IP for access to the outside world
via the M10 (remove any IP bindings to Server/Workstation/Netbios) & IPX or
NETBEUI for the internal sharing workgroup.

Another option is to use one pc at a proxy. The proxy PC has a second
network card added that's direct connected to the M10 & proxy software that
allows the other PC's to access the Web.

The former setup I use at home, the later at the office.

The requirments for running more than 1 PC on an M10 are....
each machine must have an ethernet card
a hub with 10BaseT (RJ45 an connector for the M10) & relevent connectors for
each PCs ethernet

ie if some of your PCs have 10Base2(Coax) the hub must have a 10BaseT
connector and 10BaseT for the M10 and the rest of the PCs

The PCs do not need 2 ethernet cards
