Why RedHat? What software (any preferences for sendmail or postfix or
courier)? What load (how many users)? Do you have a fixed IP address?
Who controls the name server?

These are real questions. If the answer is "I don't know", I suggest
you get in touch with someone who knows (for the mail software, I
prefer Postfix).

What sort of services? If users just want Web access, install a Web
proxy like Squid on the router.
