    If you have turned on forwarding and you have no firewall. You are probably
    forwarding to your ISP's network just fine. The problem is the ISP has no
    reason to continue to forward your internal addresses. Your addresses may
    even conflict with their own network scheme.

    You would need to set up masquerading for this to work. Check out the Howtos
    at the Linux Documentation Project.
    http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO/stronger-firewall-examples.html#RC.FIREWALL-2.4.X-STRONGER
    would be a good start, but you should really read the whole IP-Masquerade
    howto. While you're at the LDP site, check out the IP Sub-Networking
    Mini-Howto for an explanation of why this did not work as you expected.
