Debian can't connect to internet gateway

["Dan" <carbonneau@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I have a debian box (192.168.2.12) that acts as a dhcp server. The
debian box is on the same network as a few computers running Xp.  All
computers on the network are connected to the same router.  The router
(192.168.2.1) acts as an internet gateway.  The Xp computers get
connected to the internet automatically through the internet gateway,
however the debian box does not.  I want the debian box to connect
through the internet gateway also.  Right now, I can only get the
debian box to connect to the internet through pppoe.  Any suggestions?
