Hi,
I can't help with how windows does networking (I'll resist all the sarcasm:)
but you should set the Linux box to:
1) use 10.0.0.1 as its default gateway
2) edit /etc/resolv.conf to show your ISP's dns server (or whichever you use)
3) I like to edit /etc/hosts and split the first line:
(I don't know that it is needed, but it makes more sense)
from (default):
127.0.0.1 yourbox.yourdomain yourbox localhost.localdomain localhost
to: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
10.0.0.2 yourbox.yourdomain yourbox
>From there, if you can ping 192.168.0.3 from your linux box, Windows is
routing.
