It doesn't matter if the Win95 machine's IP is static or given to it by DHCP.
The masq box has know way of knowing this, and doesn't care. I'd bet that your
DHCP server is giving out the wrong gateway address (or perhaps DNS addresses),
and that's why your connections fail.
Run winipcfg on the Win95 box and see if the IP address, gateway address, and
DNS addresses are what you think they should be. If they are, then there's no
reason for masquerading not to work exactly the same as if you had made all
those settings static.
