I'm not sure what you are trying to do exactly, but if you want to get
a bunch of machines on the Internet, and they are currently all 
connected to a LAN using IP, try InJoy's IP masquerading feature.  
Works great here!  My OS/2 box serves my 2 Win98 machines quite well 
with a 48K connection.

Piece of cake.  For the setup I mentioned above, I installed TCP/IP 
and NetBIOS only on the box, configured the 3COM 905 (or Olicom 3137 
Token Ring here at home) and was up and running in under an hour!

A couple of tips about the IP masq'ing thing - don't forget to setup 
the default route in OS/2 - the OS/2 machine should route to ITSELF 
and IP Forwarding must be on.  The OS/2 box must be the default 
gateway on the Win32 machines (or any other machine on the LAN)
