I was wondering if it's possible to share an internet connection between a PowerBook G4 and a Power Mac. The PB is connected via airport and then i have an ethernet cable connecting the PB to the Power Mac. I can get the two networked fine and sharing files, but i can't get the Power Mac to access the internet through the PB.

Is there specific things i need to do before this works?
