Check out fwbuilder. I haven't used the it, but it looks like it's pretty
good and I've had several people recommend it.
You don't need it on your firewall as fwbuilder builds a shell script that
sets up the firewall.

Depends on how they're configured and if you have a dhcp server available
:).

Is you're ISP providing multiple IPs for you?
If not, you need NAT with all of your internal boxen sharing one IP. If so,
I would still suggest using a NAT box.
You could run a dhcp server on the firewall that only answers to internal
requests.
