Yes, but it requires software on the win95 end to do it. Wingate has
been mentioned to you. There is also a package called Proxy Plus that
we like.

Have you considered making the linux machine the gateway? Everything
you need to do that comes with RH6.2 - just needs to be set up.
In any case, the key is the gateway machine. Whether Linux or Windows,
once you get the gateway machine to forward and masquerade IP packets
any other machine of any type on the network should be able to utilize
the gateway.
