gated and ip masquerading

Hi,

We have a bunch of Compaq DS10L's which sit on a private network behind another
Compaq Workstation. The workstation is running Tru64 V5.1. The workstation has
one NIC which sees the outside world, tu0, and a second NIC, tu1, which is sees
the internal network. Currently, gated is running, and the following lines are
in /etc/gated.conf

--------------

# Enable RIP and send RIP updates only if >1 interface is configured
# emulating /usr/sbin/routed
rip yes ;
192.168.1.1 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 142.3.1.1 retain ;

--------------

142.3.1.1 is the gateway to the world, and 192.168.1.1 is the ip of the 2nd
NIC. The machines on the internal network have ip's 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3,
etc.

So, from the internal machines, I can ping 192.168.1.1 with no problem, and I
can even ssh to it. However, I cannot see the outside world. I think that what
I want to do is enable what I could call IP Masquerading in Linux. Can someone
tell me what I need to add to gated.conf in order to accomplish this?

Cheers,
Ed.
