[LARTC] Need advice on routing thru ppp0...

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Ok, here's the situation. I have a network of 4 computers:
1) Server - (Mandrake 8.0)	server.localdomain/192.168.0.254
2) Thin Client - (Embedded Linux)	ws001.localdomain/192.168.0.1
3) Thin Client - (Embedded Linux)	ws002.localdomain/192.168.0.2
4) Laptop - (Win95) 		ws003.localdomain/192.168.0.3

The server maintains 'net connection thru ppp0 (56k modem). Thin Clients are 
basically setup as Xterminals & all apps are executed server-side. Therefore, 
they have no problem accessing the internet. The laptop, on the other hand, 
runs Win95. The laptop is currently accessing the 'net via a proxy (on the 
server) for http & ftp (squid). I would like to be able to route all network 
traffic from the laptop (192.168.0.3) that is not local (192.168.0.*), to the 
ppp0 interface (dynamic IP) on the server (192.168.0.254). Then I'll be able 
to use email, IRC, & whatever else from my laptop.

It seems there would be a simple solution, but I'm not very experienced with 
routing. Can anyone advise me on the best (& hopefully the simplest) way to 
accomplish this?


Thanks,
Brian
