Hello Francisco,

First off: Before editing anything, copy the files you are going to edit
to a safe place (or write them down). If there's something I didn't
catch off the top of my head, you can always restore your network
configs to the state you are in right now. 

IP Masquerading is a feature of the Linux kernel, it doesn't come in a
rpm. 

Check the settings in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and make
sure they are OK. If you use DHCP it should only have this in it:

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes

Edit file /etc/sysconfig/network and set the attribute FORWARD_IPV4 to
false. Also check that GATEWAY attribute is set correctly. If you use
DHCP, this doesn't matter as it will be overridden.

When done, reload your network configs with 'service network restart'
and you should be set.

All of the above needs to be done as root.
