This subject was brought up before by somebody else,
but there was no answer in the archive.

My setup:
---------
        486-33/8 megs (192.168.1.1)
                - Running 2.1.79/Slackware 96
                - EtherExpress 16 (eth0) -> ADSL
                - SMC Ultra (eth1) -> Localnet

        Pentium 166/32 megs (192.168.1.2)
                - Win95 OSR2
                - RealTek 8029 PCI Ethernet


The problem is my Win95 box can ftp, telnet, http to remote hosts
using IP's, but can't connect to the DNS for name resolution.  The DNS
in my Win95 is the exact same as in /etc/resolv.conf.  As well, the
linux box can ping win95, but not vice-versa.

rc.modules
----------
        modprobe eexpress io=0x300
        modprobe smc-ultra io=0x280 (I think)

rc.inet1
--------
(Note: I might be missing a few args here, I'm writing
this from work - yes, I work hard :) - and can't check my setup from
here)

        ifconfig eth0 <ip> netmask 255.255.255.0
        ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

        route add default gw <gw> metric 1 eth0

rc.local
--------
        (as in IP-Masq HOWTO)

        ipfwadm -F -p deny
        ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0

I'm guessing it's more of a routing issue than a pure IP Masq problem,
seeing as I can get outside hosts, just not name resolution. 
Hopefully this isn't TOO off-topic.

Thanks,
Mitch O'Brien.
