I have a very similar setup, which I got working by following the instructions at http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~dranch/LINUX/ipmasq/c-html/.

This is my first post to the group. I hope the question isn't one that is asked all the time. I run a Suse 8.2 on a laptop that is also my only internet connection. I am trying to get my Windows PC to connect to the internet through my Laptop. My IP settings are as follows:
Laptop - 192.168.0.1 - 255.255.255.0 Windows - 192.168.0.2 - 255.255.255.0
I have tried using the Suse firewall to enable masquerading, but nothing seems to be working. The two machines can see each other.
