eh?  Are you trying to connect your windows computers to the internet 
through linux or the other way around?  If you are connecting the 
windows computers to the internet through the linux box you can use 
ipchains (with the 2.2 kernel) or iptables (with the 2.4 kernel).

I use iptables with this script that I found on the internet some time back:

##################################
#!/bin/sh
# masq

case "$1" in
'start')
	echo "   enabling forwarding.."
	echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
	echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr
	iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -m state --state 
ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
	iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT
	iptables -A FORWARD -j LOG
	iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
	;;
'stop')
	;;
*)
	echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop }"
	;;
esac
exit 0
##############################

Seems to work for me.

good luck
