Thanks for all the help!  But unfortunately it's not working.

I double checked the IP-Masquerading howto to make sure I have all the
necessary kernel components compiled in.  I also installed the ipmasq
package and rebooted.  When I establish a PPP connection, however, I
cannot see the external network (i.e. the internet) from my roommate's
computer (e.g. cannot ping outside of 192.168.*, cannot load web pages).

By the way, I do have my roommate's computer recognizing mine and mine
seeing his (I've got samba working to share files between the two
computers also).

I also tried following your steps, still no luck.  I've got a network
traffic monitor utility called wmnet running on both my modem and ethernet
card.  I had my roommate watch these programs for activity while I tried
pinging, telnetting and httping from his computer.  He said he saw
activity on both monitors, but still I couldn't get productive results on
his computer.  He's running Windows 98.
 
Anyone have any ideas?  Are there any config files I could post that would
be useful in diagnosing the problem, or output of any particular program?

Thanks,
Matt
