Be very careful when you say that... which howto have you been through?
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO-5.html#ss5.5

Which HOMTO?
> * Linuxbox = 192.168.0.1. winbox=192.168.0.2

The three relevant HOWTOs are: IP-Masquerade, IPCHAINS, and Firewalling.
In one of those is the answer.
