[plug] IP Forwarding problem

I cannot get IP forwarding to work.
I have two machines pappo1 (linux) and pappo (windozeME) on 192.168.0.2
and 192.168.0.1 respectively.
My linux gateway (redhat 7.1 system Linux 2.4.2-2 kernel) has a "1" in
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward and it is also in
However when I try to ping from my windoze machine to a web address,
this is what I see on tcpdump:

tcpdump: listening on eth0

13:21:41.971828 B pappo.2869 > 192.168.0.255.2869: udp 172

8 packets received by filter

I can access the web, through the gateway,with Internet Explorer from
the WinME machine, but mail or ping or tracert doesn't work from the
windoze machine??

Any ideas ??
