Windows 2000 pass-through server help please

[Microsoft]

What I am trying to accomplish seems easy, but I am having one hell of a
time figuring out the last step. Here is what I am trying to do.

I have an Internet connection connected to a hardware router. Connected to
the router is a Windows 2000 server AD Domain Controller running DNS for the
domain. The second NIC in this server connects to the rest of the network
on a seperate subnet. I am using 192.168.0.x and 192.168.1.x.

All of the computers in the 192.168.0.x network see the server on its
192.168.0.125 NIC card. The server sees the router on its 192.168.1.2
network card.

The server connects to the Internet and to the 192.168.0.x network properly.

What I can't figure out how to do is bridge the two network cards in the
server so that Internet requests from the 192.168.0.x subnet get pushed over
to the router on the 192.168.1.x subnet.

I think I am missing something simple and would very much appreciate a
helping hand if anyone has one to lend.

Thanks

The two most important things are to set the server to use the Internet
router as its default gateway and add a static route to the Internet router
so that it knows how to reach the "internal" subnet (192.168.0.0).

Internet
|
public IP
router
192.168.1.1
|
192.168.1.2 dg 192.168.1.1
W2k
192.168.0.1 dg blank
|
workstations
192.168.0.x dg 192.168.0.1

The Internet router needs to know that it can reach the 192.168.0.0
subnet via the W2k server. So it needs a route like

192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2

Now the LAN clients can reach the Internet router by default routing,
and the reply packets are forwarded to the W2k router, which can deliver
them directly to the LAN clients.
