Version:
    FreeBsd 3.3

Situation:
    Client Machine is RedHat, I will call machine C.
    Server Machine is FreeBSD3.3, I will call machine S
    C has default gateway set to S.
    C and S have hosts file containing information about each other.
    C can ping S and vice versus.
    S can ping www.freebsd.org (it has auto dial modem configured).
    And yes, when S dials modem it adds the IP given by ISP as default.
    S machine has rc.conf w/ gateway_enable="YES" and
router_enable="YES"

Question:
    Why can't the C machine use S machine as gateway to the outside
world?
    What am I missing?

Note:
    If I do a traceroute www.freebsd.org, it goes to the S machine and
then basicly stops...
