I don't know if this thread is still going (I'm catching up),
but Win98SE and WinME both have Internet Connection Sharing,
which will do what the original poster wants. He'll need to
set up his gateway as the Win98SE or WinME box in Linux, and
should modify his DNS to point to the DNS that is given by
his ISP. Works fine on my stuff at home (I only have a couple
of WinModems, though one is a Lucent that has Linux drivers
available... just haven't done it yet. I'm waiting for that
Cable modem next spring :)

Check into something called WinGate - that is exactly what it is designed to
do (Masq for windows servers)...
I think that Win 98 & newer have this capability built in (possibly VPN?),
but I have never used it, so I can't help you there.
