Hello SuSE folks!

I connected Win NT Server and Linux SuSE 6.1 boxes over the Ethernet.
Linux box has the permanent dedicated connection ppp0 to my ISP with static
IP address.
Now I want to be able to browse Internet from Win NT computer and receive
mail on it.

I set in /etc/route.conf

# Destination           Gateway                      Netmask
Device  
192.168.1.1           192.168.1.100          255.255.255.255       eth0
#(NT box IP addr)   (Linux box IP addr)
(Ethernet card)

My setting in /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1          localhost
My Static IP      mydomain.com              mydomain 
192.168.1.100   linux.mydomain.com       linux
192.168.1.1       winnt.mydomain.com      winnt

However this approach doesn't work.
I can reach winnt host from linux box but I can't reach linux box from
winnt computer and I can't  browse the Internet from winnt box.

Could somebody tell me what I was doing wrong.
What conception in connection winnt and linux boxes I misunderstood?

Thank you in advance

Alex
