No need to recompile the kernel. When you know what you are doing by setting it, you can do: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward which will turn on ip forwarding. Make sure you know what you are doing FIRST!! Also check default gateway and dns server parameters on both computers. I've been running a nat linux firewall for 3 years now. They work well.
