Thank you,
That solved the problem for the windows machine and after I fixed
the firewall on the linux client (and figured out that I had
lost my gateway playing with service) everything works. Now I
need to find a good book on ipchains so I how it all works.

Did you configure your Windows machines to use the proper DNS server? You
either need to have a DNS server running on your firewall/router, for the
Windows machines to query, or you have to configure your Windows machines
to query your ISP's DNS server(s).

I did a minimal install of 7.2 on a machine to act as a router and
firwall and router. I used up2date and have everything current so the
internet connection works. I can ping the isp dns ipaddress from both
linux and windows computers but I can not use internet explorer or
netscape to view website
Hello,
You need some accept rules for tcp, udp, and ICMP, see example below:
eth0 is your interface.
===EXAMPLE RULES===
# TCP
# serve ftp for NON-passive clients_ONLY_
-A input -i eth0 -p tcp --destination-port 20:21 --syn -j ACCEPT -l
# serve ssh - 22
-A input -i eth0 -p tcp --destination-
