Joining 192.168.1.* to 192.168.1.* with filtering for only MS SQL Server?

Hi all,

Im trying to use Gentoo linux, to connect two networks.

Net 1 is served to be 192.168.1.*

Net 2 is served to be 192.168.2.*

I want server 192.168.1.1 to reach 192.168.2.1 to only communicate with
a Microsoft SQL Server via TCP/IP. What should I look for.

Orignally I went with moving everything, into 192.168.1.1 - 50 for Net
1, then 192.168.1.100-51 for Net 2. I figured then I could bridge with
a firewall. However, the linux box, on getting the two ips, using dhcp,
does not then know where to route the packets?

Is there an easy way, if possible gentoo tutorials on setting this up
available, so that 192.168.1.1 can communicate only with 192.168.2.1
passing through a gentoo computer, with a seperate NIC for each
network.

Also does anyone know if you can do this for MS-SQL Server,by opening
up a specific port? What are my options please help, this is now
driving me insane.

Thanks

David
