I had considered two networks but I do want to have access to the Linux box from all workstations.
Using a test box I added a NIC and hooked up a win98 box to make test network (one workstation). I
then edited the pmfirewall.rules.masq file and changed...

$IPCHAINS -A forward -s $INTERNALNET -d $REMOTENET -j MASQ

to

$IPCHAINS -A forward -s 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 -d $REMOTENET -j MASQ

This allowed access to the outside network from any internal address (192.168.0.xxx). Changing the
subnet mask to to 255.255.255.255 limited access to only the one address.

$IPCHAINS -A forward -s 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.255 -d $REMOTENET -j MASQ

Thanks for the all the ideas.
