Yes, the problem is the gateway address on the network card. If you only
have a small LAN, you do NOT need a gateway. Delete it and then try
logging on again. 5 bucks says you don't get the 'no route to host' error.

Masquerading is for letting other computers access the Internet through
your linux machine.

If you need any help setting the network up, send me an email to
darryl@bachblue.com.au and I'll be able to help you out.
