You really should read the IP-MASQUERADE howto.  Available from
linuxdoc.org, or found in your /usr/share/doc/HOWTO directory it walks
you through setting up masquerading. As I recall if you cut-and-paste
the example from the howto and change the ip numbers to your subnet it
will work straight away.
