Newbie Question: Route all request coming from eth1 to ppp0/dsl0/eth0


I'm really a total newbie when it comes to network configuration and to SUSE in general as well. So PLEASE, keep any answers in the format "Then click on ..." . Treat me like the fool I am

Here's the situation
I want to get my Palm onto the internet. For that purpose I've bought a DWL2000AP+ Wireless Access Point and and PalmOne Wifi SD card.

The AP has been set up correctly and is connected to my PC via eth1. Shows up fine and I can access the AP'S configuration page from my PC just fine.
Also, attempts to access stuff on my PC, like the MLdonkey web interface from my Palm succeed.

The internet is acessed via ppp0 -> dsl0 -> eth0 (10.0.0.138) and works well. However IPs for anything but the DSL modem itself are dynamic and there's not much I can do about that.

So all indiviudal components are working fine. Only problem: How do I get them to work together? I've had a look at Yast2's routing config and quite frankly, I have no idea what values it asks for. Entering the DSL modem's IP address (10.0.0.138) doesn't seem to work.

So can anybody give me a precise description on what settings to enter in the routing settings and where I can find these settings. It's probably very simple for a pro, but it has given me quite a headache over the last week.

I'd also highly appreciate it if somebody would tell me how to do this through yast, and not via 10000 commandline tools.

Thanx in advance

P.S:
Here's the output from /sbin/ip addr show , don't know if it's any help though
