   VPN under Linux

   Ok, here's the problem.....   
      
   I got one Desktop-PC(WinXP) and a Laptop(Debian Linux).   
      
      
   The Desktop-PC has two network-cards:   
      
   1.) a Netgear 311v2 WLan Adapter   
   2.) A 100 Mbit Intel Ethernet Adapter   
      
      
   My Laptop has 1 network card:   
      
   1.) 100 MBit Ethernet Adapter   
      
      
   The Ethernet adapter of my Desktop-PC is connected with the Etehrnet adapter   
   of my   
   Laptop.   
      
   The "Netgear 311v2" gives access to the Internet in two ways:   
      
   1.) a restricted Internet Access (e.g ssh is not permitted )   
   2.) a unrestricted Internet Access(ssh usage is possible) together with a   
   vpn software (Cisco VPN Client)   
      
   I configured my Dektop-PC as a Gateway , so that i can use the Internet   
   access on my Laptop.   
   Everything works fine in the case of the restricted Internet access - I can   
   surf on the Laptop without problems.   
   In order to use the unrestricted Internet access on the Laptop i installed   
   the "cisco vpn client for linux"   
   on my Laptop. When i start it, everything seems to be ok - The VPN client   
   establishes the connection,   
   outputs the connection information like , IP adress of vpn server and so on.   
   But when i start a application like firefox, i have no access to the   
   internet.   
   I even can't ping the vpn server to which the conection has been   
   established.   
      
   Some advices?   
      
   Thx in advance
