[WinMac] IPNetrouter / Hosts File

OK, I have a hosts file on my personal Mac machine that blocks a
stack of junk / spam / advertising sites / servers.

Now logic says you should just be able to use this as the hosts file
on the gateway Mac running IPNetRouter and have it block these sites
from ALL the machines on the LAN (to save my having to install it on
every machine.)

I have tried this in the past with IPNetRouter which proceeded to
barf and block ALL outside access.

Anyone had any luck / experience?
