You need to add an iptables rule to do NATing, eg

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

This works for dynamic ip numbers..
For static ip numbers, eg

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to-source yr.ip.num.ber

The other hosts on the network need the eth1 IP address value for the default gateway as well.

nating problem
 
my eth0 is 62.241.153.147

eth1 192.168.1.1
my router 62.241.153.145


after i made the iptables role for nating i can access the internet and my local network can ping eth0,eth1,the router and can ping any host on the internet with the ip only but couldn't ping the host with the name

and when i make command: nslookup in any windows he can't find the name server for the ip 192.168.1.1


thank you

Cool..

Now you need to add the dns servers for your isp into /etc/resolv.conf

Enjoy!

my /etc/resolve.conf

search my.domin.com
nameserver 192.168.1.1

It looks like you need the ip numbers for ns1 & ns2..

Code:
peter ~ # dig -x 62.241.153.147
 
 ; <<>> DiG 9.3.2 <<>> -x 62.241.153.147
