I don't know, it depends on what's your gw's IP is. 

Let's say you have this setup:


GW: 192.168.1.1

Other PCs are: 192.168.1.2... 192.168.1.3... and so on.


On the GW you need:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ethX -j MASQUERADE
(note: change ethX by the NIC your internet connection is on. If your 
cablemodem/adsl/whatever is on eth3 -for example- change ethX to eth3)


On the others PC you need to set GW to 192.168.1.1


I hope this helps.

Best regards,
Norberto
