emmm.   not very much info here but...
Did you install ip forwarding on your linux machine?
Did you set-up proxy/firewall rules on your linux machine?
Have you configured network-neighborhood to use the linux box as the gateway
for tcp/ip?
Do you have the DNS info correct for your server in the network
neighborhood?

If you answered NO to the first 4 questions please goto this url and
download the firewall-howto.pdf,ip-masquerading-howto.pdf, or
ipchains-howto.pdf
 http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/pdf/

If you answered no to the last question please contact you local isp for
your DNS information.
