There is already a home networking HOWTO, which you can see at
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Home-Network-mini-HOWTO.html

Your document seems to cover a few things the first doesn't, and vice
versa. My recommendation is that you contribute your work to the author of
the original (Paul Ramsey, pramsey@refractions.net) and work out a
co-authorship arrangement with him. One of you, or both, will have to
integrate the two.
