Maybe I should have asked something a little more specific when I was 
writting this email as I have actually attempted to get the gateway working 
after reading several things on gateways (unfortunately.. most being on 
IPChains...)

My problem is that I can get the gateway computer to connect to the internet, 
but it cannot ping the client machine (192.168.1.2) but the client machine 
can ping the server (192.168.1.1) but cannot get an internet connection.  I 
have setup the Tiny firewall.. so I was wondering if that may be blocking the 
server from connecting, and if so.. how might I go about allowing it through.

Thanks again.
