probably the easiest thing to do would be have diald dial-up machine on
the main network proxyarp for the machines on the remote network.  this
should work if the machines on the main network don't think they have to
go thru a gateway to get to the remote network's ip addresses.  if there
is a large number of machines on the remote network, this would be a bit
tedious.  (and the man page for arp(8) mentions that it's not
recommended to proxy arp for a whole network.)

otherwise you need to look in to doing some routing (routed(8)).  if you
do route, be careful.  it's pretty easy to mess up.

luck.
