I have a Linux box with suse 8.2 on a lan with a lot of windows pc. My
Linux OS can connect itself to Internet via modem and work perfectly.
Instead I can't connect any site from my PC's, using Linux as a
Gateway.

I have inserted as gateway the IP address of the linux machine on each
PC; I have verified that in the file /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
there is 1, but no one of my PC's can connect sites trough the linux
machine.

There is some other thing to do on Linux to reach my objective ? Thank
you. Franco
